ABSTRACT

The comorbidity of keratoconus with Fuchs� endothelial dystrophy with cataract is a rare clinical combination. We present an amalgamation of surgical techniques to manage the above clinical conditions and its complications in single setting. The modified triple procedure, namely, the phacoemulsification, pinhole pupilloplasty, and pre-Descemet抯 endothelial keratoplasty (PDEK) in the order of description is followed in single sitting. Lens removal by phacoemulsification, correction of irregular astigmatism by pinhole pupilloplasty (pinhole optics), and exchanging the endothelial layer for PDEK forms the main segments of the triple procedure. This combination of techniques may decrease the risk of multiple surgeries and its related complications. Moreover, it will allow the patient for faster visual rehabilitation by improving the uncorrected visual acuity and visual quality.
