Two-Step Iridocorneal Endothelial Syndrome Management: Endocapsular Intraocular Lens and Artificial Iris Followed by Descemet's Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty.

ABSTRACT: A 54-year-old female presented with complaints of glare and progressive visual loss OS with a corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) OS of 20/100. The patient had grade 1 corneal edema with a "beaten bronze" appearance on specularly reflected light, pseudopolycoria, and a nuclear sclerotic cataract. The diagnosis of nuclear cataract and progressive iris atrophy iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome was made, and the patient underwent uneventful phacoemulsification with capsular bag placement of an AcrySof SA60AT intraocular lens combined with pseudopolycoria repair using an endocapsular Model A REPER artificial iris. Six months later, the patient was submitted to a Descemet's stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK) procedure, and 6 months after that the CDVA was 20/32 with
