[Phacoemulsification of intumescent cataract, IOL implantation and reconstruction of congenital iris coloboma through one anterior chamber superior opening. Case report].
OBJECTIVE
To report a phacoemulsification of intumescens cataract and repair of congenital iris coloboma through one superior incision.


METHODS
Retrospective case report.


RESULTS
Postoperative repair resulted in adequate pupil restoration, exact IOL position that allowed good visual rehabilitation.


CONCLUSIONS
Cataract surgery in most cases is performed through superior incision. Congenital iris coloboma repair using the same incision is difficult but provides good cosmetic and functional results.
