Functional outcomes after combined iris and intraocular lens implantation in various iris and lens defects.

Background: To assess the functional outcomes after combined iris and intraocular lens (IOL) repair in aniridia patients.

Methods: Retrospective observational study in 59 aniridic and aphakic eyes for ArtificialIris (AI) and IOL reconstruction. The iris prostheses were placed together with the IOL in the capsular bag using an injection system or were fixed by transscleral suturing of the IOL and AI.
