A 52-year-old women underwent penetrating keratoplasty for total corneal opacity after healed microbial keratitis with an uneventful postoperative period until six months when she developed gross diminution of vision. During examination, she was detected to have a membrane in the anterior chamber, creating a double anterior chamber with a total cataract. The graft was clear, and sutures were intact. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed the membrane in the anterior chamber crossing the graft host junction, suggesting this membrane to be retained host descemet membrane. This was confirmed on histopathological examination. Double rhexis (descemetorhexis and capsulorhexis) was performed with cataract removal and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, and patient had good visual recovery postoperatively.
