Visian Implantable Collamer Lens Behavior in Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty Surgery

We report a case of severe endothelial damage after AC-pIOL implantation managed by the exchange of the AC-pIOL by an ICL, followed by Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty. Collamer-based PC-pIOLs seem to not affect Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty outcomes. ICL did not show any transparency loss. These results cannot be extrapolated to other non-collamer–based PC-pIOLs. Further studies with larger samples are necessary to confirm these outcomes.
