Neovascularization of lens capsule has so far been described in cases of retinal detachment or proliferative diabetic retinopathy in pseudophakes.1–4 We hereby describe a unique case that presented with posterior lens capsular neovascularization in the absence of any other sign of anterior segment neovascularization, and it was found to be associated with idiopathic ciliary body inflammation. The management with regard to clearing of the visual axis, biopsy of the involved tissue, and follow-up is described.
