title: Contact lens management of aniseikonia and photophobia induced by trauma.

  METHODS
  A 61-year-old man suffered a blunt injury to his left eye resulting in glaucoma and a traumatic cataract with a fixed pupil and iris defects. A vitrectomy, lensectomy, and iris repair were performed leaving him with significant anisometropia.

  CONCLUSIONS
  Contact lenses can provide significant visual improvement in cases of aniseikonia and photophobia.
