Phakic intraocular lenses (IOLs) are increasingly used for high refractive errors. Managing cataracts in eyes with these IOLs presents unique surgical challenges for ophthalmic surgeons.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Refractive Surgery

Background:

  • Intraocular lenses (IOLs) are now used for high myopia and hyperopia correction in phakic eyes.
  • IOL implantation is an alternative when excimer laser indications are limited.

Observation:

  • A 40-year-old patient with biphakia, cataract, and high myopia underwent IOL explantation and cataract extraction.
  • AcrySof foldable lens implantation was performed in the bag after lens extraction.

Findings:

  • Discusses cataract formation causes in eyes with posterior chamber phakic IOLs.
  • Addresses IOL power selection, surgical incision techniques, and intraoperative challenges.

Implications:

  • The combination of phakic IOLs and cataract management poses new challenges for ophthalmic surgeons.
