Abstract
Surgical correction of traumatic aniridia aims to improve the quality of vision, compartmentalize the anterior and posterior chamber, and re-establish a satisfying cosmetic appearance. Various types of prosthetic iris devices (PIDs) are available, which differ in technical difficulty of implant and design: artificial iris (AI)–intraocular lens prosthesis, endocapsular capsular tension ring–based PID, and customized AI. The choice depends on the preexisting clinical condition after severe ocular trauma and on patient functional and cosmetic expectations. This systematic review of the literature compared anatomical and functional outcomes of various types of PIDs. Of 185 articles found in the literature, 70 fulfilled the eligibility criteria. 5 subgroups of PIDs were Ophtec, artificial iris from Ophtec BV, Morcher GmbH, HumanOptics AG, and other prosthesis. Both glare and aesthetic outcome improved postoperatively; in comparison with other PIDs, intraocular pressure rise was higher in the Morcher group (40%), whereas prosthesis dislocation was higher in the Ophtec group (39%).
