Cataract formation in the Cronkhite-Canada syndrome

P R Simcock et al. J Cataract Refract Surg. 1996 Oct.

Abstract

A 69-year-old man with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome presented with a 6 month history of gradually blurring vision resulting from early lens opacities that 1 month later had reduced visual acuity to hand movement in both eyes. Extracapsular cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation resulted in good visual rehabilitation.
