A cilium was observed just above the fundus on the retina during the third month postoperative examination (Fig. 1).
a A cilium had been caught in the trocar during the fluid-air exchange (white arrow). b When the laser probe was inserted and subsequently removed, the surgeon did not notice the presence of the cilium (white arrow). c As a result, the cilium was led to stray into the eye gradually (white arrow).
