From the Editor

Consultation Section

  • freeRefractive Surgical Problem

    A 51-year-old man who had previous penetrating corneal transplantation (penetrating keratoplasty [PKP]) for keratoconus in the right eye presented to his primary ophthalmologist 2 years later with a visually significant cataract. Because of high and relatively symmetric astigmatism, the patient had phacoemulsification with implantation of an Acrysof IQ toric intraocular lens (IOL) (SN60T7, Alcon Laboratories, Inc.) to correct post-PKP astigmatism.
