“…In other words, we sized the device relative to the shorter of the intraoperative meridians and gained better aesthetic results, which encouraged us to resize the Artificial Iris in the places with remnants with circular borders. This exclusive handmade device is friendly to surgeons’ hands, and it facilitates various surgical methods; the Artificial Iris can be suture fixated [ 10 , 20 ] if necessary, sutured side-to-side to the remaining iris tissue, [ 27 ] sutureless, [ 14 ] or use knotless sutures. [ 28 ] In eyes with remaining capsules, the Artificial Iris can be placed using the Rosenthal method in the sulcus or with a capsular tension ring (CTR) [ 26 ] and staining (Trypan blue or indocyanine green in cases of congenital aniridia with a fragile capsule) [ 29 , 30 ] in the bag.…”

Purpose:To evaluate probable complications of ArtificialIris implantation with iris fixated intraocular lens.Method:Development of photophobia, glare, and psychological strain during face-to-face communication in a 23-year-old man with a widespread traumatic iris defect terminate to make a decision for performing implantation of an ArtificialIris (Humanoptics, Erlangen, Germany) under the remnant iris without removing the patient's existing Artisan lens.Results:Without any intraoperative or postoperative complications, the patient's visual acuity increased by 1 line, the endothelial cell loss was comparable with the cell loss associated with standard cataract surgery, and the anterior-chamber depth and anterior-chamber anatomy did not change. At the final follow-up examination, the mean intraocular pressure did not differ from baseline, and we achieved high level of patient satisfaction and subjective vision improvement. We discuss the particular importance of considering the patient's expectations, the appropriate measurements, ways to perfect color evaluation, and the types of ArtificialIris products.Conclusion:The implantation of the ArtificialIris in patients with aphakic iris-supported lenses (ie, pre-existing Artisan lenses) is a feasible approach and a useful option for patients with thin irises and iris hypoplasia who are at risk of subluxation or the dislocation of the posterior-chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL), and also those with sclerally fixed PCIOLs.

“…It perfectly transmits visible light and dispenses ultraviolet light, which is harmful to human eyes in large doses. Although the lenses are made of similar materials, the manufacturing process is different [6,7]. Cheaper lenses are made up of several parts.…”

A cataract is a disease of the 21st century. In highly developed countries, the opacification of the intraocular lens is removed and replaced with an implant. This article discusses the essential aspects related to the construction of implants that imitate the natural lens of the eyeball. The research was carried out owing to X-ray microtomography. Observer design differences in the two lenses' structures contribute to the implant's quality in question. The study aimed to check and compare two types of implants in terms of the design and manufacturing quality of the given lenses. The common element of the implants in question was their material and manufacturer. Lenses of the same material were used to maintain the same optics. The results gave a comparison in terms of the quality of the product in terms of the creation and modelling of the lenses than the properties of the material itself from which they were made.
