Purpose: This study is to describe the clinical outcome of penetrating keratoplasty combined with implantation of a novel intraocular lens with an artificial iris, aided by continuous vitreous chamber infusion, in patients with severe aniridia and corneal alterations.

Methods: This was a prospective single-center case series study involving five patients with corneal alterations and aniridia. All subjects underwent simultaneous penetrating keratoplasty and implantation of a new intraocular lens with an artificial iris with the assistance of infusion into the vitreous chamber to regulate intraocular pressure during the surgical procedure.

Purpose: To compare two aspheric ablation profiles in myopic refractive surgery using different asphericity targets.

Methods: Patients underwent laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with the WaveLight EX500 laser platform (Alcon, WaveLight Laser Technologie). Asymmetric surgery was performed, programming the wavefront-optimized (WFO) ablation profile in one eye and the custom-Q (CQ) profile in the contralateral eye.
