The dislocation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL) because of constant eye rubbing is unusual and has never been reported in a child with Leber’s congenital amaurosis (LCA). A 4-year-old full-term girl with an ocular history of LCA presented to the emergency room with a single-piece PC IOL dislocated into the anterior chamber (AC) of the left eye. There was no history of trauma or any other surgical intervention. A specific behavior known as Franceschetti’s oculo-digital sign is a characteristic feature of LCA; this sign consists of repeated pressing, poking, and rubbing of the eyes with knuckles and fingers to stimulate the photoreceptors. This behavior caused the dislocation of the PC IOL into the AC. The dislocated IOL was explanted, and the patient was provided with aphakic glasses.
