Endothelial keratoplasty combined with scleral fixation intraocular lens

describe, for the first time, the surgical management of two aphakic patients with corneal decompensation treated with concomitant ultrathin-Descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (UT-DSAEK) and implantation of two different scleral-fixated (SF) intraocular lenses (IOLs), namely sutureless SF (SSF) Carlevale IOL (Soleko, Italy; Figure 1) or Morcher Type 90L IOL (Morcher GmbH, Germany; Figure 2). Both IOLs are hydrophilic acrylic. The Carlevale IOL is 13.2 mm long with a 6.5 mm optic plate, foldable and injectable through a 2.2 mm corneal tunnel. A T-shaped harpoon protrudes off the closed haptics and is designed to be externalized underneath a partial thickness scleral flap (Figure 1). The Morcher Type 90L IOL is 15 mm long with a 6.5 mm optic plate. The two C-loop haptics have an eyelet for the passage of the sutures for the scleral fixation
