Abstract
We received approval from the U.S. implant Food and Drug Administration and the University's Institutional Review Board to the Artisan lens (Ophtec BV) in both eyes of a patient who was aphakic and had megalocornea. No other intraocular lens would easily solve this patient's need because of the large anterior segment. The patient was having increasing difficulty with aphakic contact lenses because of his work environment. We present almost 5 years of follow-up data of this patient.
