| dc.description.abstract | We report the ocular manifestations of Alport syndrome and the surgical results in 4 patients. All 4 patients had anterior lenticonus; 2 also had posterior lenticonus in both eyes, 3 had flecked retina, and 1 had posterior polymorphous dystrophy. In both eyes of the 4 patients, phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation was performed to treat anterior and posterior lenticonus. The postoperative visual acuity was excellent in all patients. We recommend phacoemulsification with IOL implantation as a safe and effective procedure in patients with lenticonus secondary to Alport syndrome. | |
