Show Description +

Nicholas Hadjokas, MD, presents a case in which a 60-year-old man experienced a bungee cord injury that resulted in traumatic mydriasis and a partial-thickness corneal laceration that healed into a visually significant scar. The patient had undergone a full-thickness corneal transplant and pupillary cerclage but presented 10 years later with worsening vision and glare symptoms. Dr. Hadjokas walks through his approach to a combined procedure involving cataract surgery and a repeat pupillary cerclage.
