Resumo

Two patients who received a minus-power intraocular lens implanted as a secondary piggyback to correct pseudophakic myopia experienced pupillary optic capture following dilation in the early postoperative period. Both cases were successfully managed by pressing the optic back into the ciliary sulcus and constricting the pupil with pilocarpine.
