This film puts the spotlight on dead bag syndrome, a cause of late IOL decentration. It differentiates two diseases causing late IOL decentration – one, a zonulopathy, and the other, dead bag syndrome, where pathology of the lens epithelial cells or capsule, leads to IOL decentration alone. It describes associations, clinical features, and surgical outcomes in the dead bag syndrome.
