"A 75-year-old man is referred for poor vision after cataract surgery. According to the patient, surgery took place about 2 months ago. Preoperatively, he wanted to maintain his ability to read without correction but was willing to wear glasses for distance. Upon presentation, the patient can read only when the material is held close to his nose. On examination, his UCVA is counting fingers OU, and his BCVA is approximately 20/100 OU with a refraction of -12.00 D spherical equivalent. The patient has severe kyphosis, which prevents him from straightening his neck, making a slit-lamp examination challenging, and renders diagnostics almost impossible."
