· AIM: We describe visual improvement after phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in 7 eyes with anterior lenticonus secondary to Alport syndrome.· METHODS: 7 eyes from 4 patients with Alport syndrome underwent phacoemulsification with IOL implantation due to anterior lenticonus.· RESULTS: All of the patients resumed excellent visual acuity after surgery.· CONCLUSION: We recommend the phacoemulsification with IOL implantation as a safe procedure in anterior lenticonus due to Alport syndrome.
