dc.description.abstractWhile phacoemulsification cataract surgery is a routine and safe procedure, clear visualization of the anterior segment is challenging in patients with corneal opacity. Illumination from the operating microscope can cause scattering and light reflection in a patient with corneal opacity. A frequent approach for these cases is cataract surgery with sequential or simultaneous corneal transplantation. This method has serious preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative drawbacks, such as a long wait for a donor cornea, choroidal hemorrhage, and delayed visual rehabilitation. In this case series, the technique of intracameral endoilluminator-assisted phacoemulsification surgery in patients with severe corneal opacity was shown to provide better visualization and reduced scattering and reflection in patients with corneal opacity.
