Steven G. Safran, MD, presents a case of a patient with a Tecnis multifocal placed in the sulcus who had pseudoexfoliation syndrome and iris chafing causing a pigment dispersion type glaucoma. A decision was made to replace the IOL with a monofocal silicone lens for optical reasons to reduce the likelihood of chafing. Trabecular aspiration was also performed to clean out the angle and reduce the IOP. This was successful, reducing the patient’s IOP significantly and thus avoiding the need for further surgery.
