Slit-lamp examination of the left eye. (a) A full-thickness corneal wound with localized corneal edema at the temporal lower peri-limbal area was noted. (b) The corresponding iris of the lesion eye became de-pigmented, but there was no obvious penetrating hole detected

Under slit-lamp examination, a full-thickness corneal wound with localized corneal edema at the temporal lower peri-limbal area was revealed [Figure 1a]. Depigmentation occurred in the corresponding iris, but there was no penetrating hole [Figure 1b].
The clinical change of the lens of the lesion eye. (a) The lens was clear at the initial clinic visit. (b) Zonal cortical cataract formed quickly from the side of the wound, and small particles, likely lens material leakages, appeared at the pupil margin (c) Generalized posterior subcapsular cataract was also observed on the 2nd day clinic follow-up. (d) A fine metal thread had been completely embedded in the lens and was removed together with the lens 1 month later during the elective extracapsular cataract extraction surgery

The anterior chamber was deep with cells, and the lens was clear [Figure 2a]. However, a zonal cortical cataract formed from the side of the wound, and small particles, likely lens material leakages, appeared at the pupil margin [Figure 2b]. A posterior subcapsular cataract also developed [Figure 2c]. A fine metal thread had been completely embedded in the lens; FB and lens were removed together [Figure 2d].
