2712: Quiz: What are these capsule wrinkles?

Close-up view of an eye during cataract surgery, showing capsule wrinkles as a surgeon injects the intraocular lens (IOL) with radial lines visible in the capsule.

This is truly a challenging quiz and very few surgeons can look at this picture and correctly determine what will happen next. I tried my best, and I was totally surprised! In this case, a resident surgeon attempts to inject an IOL into the capsular bag (in an otherwise routine and uncomplicated case) and then this happens…. wow, just wow. Have you ever seen anything like this? Comment below, please, because this is a first for me!
