A 72-year-old lady complained sudden-onset loss of vison in the left eye after falling from bed. She was only able to perceive light from the left eye. Anterior segment examination showed a solid subconjunctival mass in the superonasal quadrant adjacent to limbus, suggestive of anterior phacocele. Ultrasound B-scan confirmed the diagnosis, and patient was taken for surgery which led to good visual recovery. Appropriate and timely diagnosis and management of such cases can improve prognosis of such cases.
