Abstract
Posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens (PCP IOL) implantation is an emerging refractive procedure. We report a case of cataract formation 6 months after uneventful implantation of a Staar PCP IOL to correct high myopia. Visual recovery was achieved after explantation of the phakic IOL and phacoemulsification with implantation of a foldable IOL through the same unenlarged self-sealing corneal incision.Entities:
