title: Phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in an Alport's syndrome patient with bilateral anterior and posterior lenticonus.
abstract: We report a case of intraocular lens (IOL) implantation with a continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis and phacoemulsification in a 30-year-old man manifesting anterior and posterior lenticonus. The surgery was uneventful and on follow-up, the IOL was well centered in the bag.
