Management of Spherophakia- or Microspherophakia-associated Mild to Moderate Glaucoma with Lensectomy, Anterior Vitrectomy, and Iris-Claw Intraocular Lens Implantation

Lensectomy and iris-claw lens implantation in our cases not only decreased the IOP and reduced the number of glaucoma medications, but also improved the best-corrected visual acuity. Removal of the abnormally shaped lens likely contributed to these changes.
