Weiil-Marchesani patients with cataractous lenses may present a surgical challenge in the presence of zonular weakness and microsherophakia. A 52-year-old Weill-Marchesani patient developed zonular dehiscence during capsule contraction after cataract extraction in her right eye. Use of a poly(methyl methacrylate) capsular tension ring in the second eye facilitated lens removal and intraocular lens placement. Postoperative results suggest the capsular tension ring provides long-term zonular stabilization by maintaining an internal force against the capsule.
