A 58 year old male operated for cataract surgery implanted with a multifocal Intraocular Lens (IOL), later underwent vitreoretinal surgery for retinal detachment with silicone oil injection. Even after removal of silicone oil, the patient had oil deposits in the groves between the multifocal IOL as shown in the Fig. 1. Multifocal IOLs are indeed a bad choice for patients who require treatment for retinal disorders because not only fundus visualization is difficult in these patients due to multifocal refractive/diffractive phenomenon but also the groves might become a niche for oil deposition.
