Implantable collamer lenses (ICL) have revolutionized the management of high refractive errors, yet they present unique challenges. We present a case of a fixed and dilated atonic pupil following acute-angle closure glaucoma from pupillary block after ICL implantation, known as Urrets-Zavalia syndrome. A 39-year-old woman developed acute ocular pain and headaches after surgery, leading to elevated intraocular pressure and subsequent complications necessitating ICL removal.

Peripheral iridotomy is a standard treatment for conditions like primary angle-closure glaucoma. However, the associated visual symptoms, such as glare and dysphotopsia, often reduce patient satisfaction. This article presents a novel surgical technique utilizing a double-frequency Nd:YAG laser (532 nm) to reduce the size of existing iridotomies, addressing these visual disturbances without compromising the functional efficacy of the iridotomy.
