This is a rare case that I have never personally experienced, but you may in the future. The patient reports no prior history of any ocular issues but when you start to perform cataract surgery, you notice a sectoral area of nuclear opacity. And then during phaco you discover an intra-lenticular foreign body (see pic above). What do you do? Is the capsular bag intact? What is this foreign body? How do you safely complete the case?
