Abstract:
We implanted aniridia intraocular lenses (aniridia IOL) on three cases with complaint of glare caused by traumatic or congenital aniridias combined with cataract or aphakia. Aniridia IOLs were fixed by scleral fixation on one aphakia with traumatic aniridia, and at the ciliary sulcus on one aphakia with traumatic aniridia and one congenital aniridia with cataract. After follow-up of at least 2 months, visual improvement, absence of glare and cosmetic acceptance was observed without any complication in all cases.
