We report the case of a patient who developed the uveitis-glaucoma-hyphema (UGH) syndrome secondary to extensive fibrosis (Soemmerring ring) around the haptics of the single-piece intraocular lens (IOL) in the capsular bag. The development of significant capsule fibrosis caused the IOL to tilt out of the iris plane, leading to haptic-iris and haptic-ciliary body chafing. The mechanisms described should prompt clinicians to consider the UGH syndrome even in the setting of a single-piece IOL properly placed in the capsular bag. Anterior segment imaging with ultrasound biomicroscopy can be used to evaluate the position of the IOL haptics in suspected cases.
