摘要：

We report 2 patients with stable keratoconus and high myopia who benefited from implantation of an iris-supported phakic intraocular lens (Verisyse, AMO) for correction of their refractive error. Both patients had a postoperative uncorrected visual acuity of 20/40. Endothelial cell density showed at most a 4% decrease, and no evidence of keratoconus progression was witnessed. The use of the Verisyse lens may be beneficial for certain keratoconic patients as an alternative step between rigid gas-permeable lenses and penetrating keratoplasty.
