ABSTRACT: Lens damage during phakic intraocular lens implantation is a major complication. A case of a patient who developed lens vacuoles during toric implantable collamer lens (ICL) removal from her right eye and insertion of a new non-toric ICL due to persistent rotation of the former is presented in this work. As this event is very uncommon when implanting phakic intraocular lenses, the performed surgical procedure, the appearance of the vacuoles and the hypothesis on the origin of the vacuoles is described
