Iridocorneal Endothelial Syndrome

To report the outcomes of endothelial keratoplasty (EK) combined with near total iridectomy in the management of iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome with severely disorganised anterior segment. Three patients with ICE syndrome, who had a severely disorganised anterior segment underwent near total iridectomy, with/without cataract surgery, followed by EK at the same time. Mean age was 35 years. Prior to EK, the intraocular pressure (IOP) was in the range of 12–15 mm Hg. One patient (patient 2) had advanced disc damage prior to EK. Two eyes (patients 1 and 2) had a glaucoma drainage device, and in one, the IOP was controlled with two antiglaucoma medications. All grafts were clear, and IOP was well controlled till the last mean follow-up of 53 (range 30–72) months. The outcomes of EK with this surgical approach are favourable and should be considered in selective cases of ICE syndrome.
