Favorable outcome using a black diaphragm intraocular lens for traumatic aniridia with total iridectomy.

A 25-year-old man had a penetrating injury to the left eye. Ocular examination revealed a full-thickness corneal laceration, total aniridia, anterior capsule rupture, and microscopic hyphema. Ten days after the immediate primary-repair surgery, aspiration of the lens secondary to traumatic cataract was performed. Four months later, a black diaphragm intraocular lens was implanted. Postoperatively, the best corrected visual acuity was 20/20 in both eyes. Multifocal spectacles were prescribed to provide the near and far vision required for the patient's job. Normal intraocular pressure and acceptable photophobia were noted during the 18-month follow-up.
