A Case Report of the Triple Procedure in a Patient - Penetrating Keratoplasty, Extracapsular Cataract Extraction, and Posterior Chamber Intraocular Lens Implantation

The triple procedure, which includes penetrating keratoplasty (PKP), extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE), and posterior chamber lens implantation (PCIOL), is a surgical preference and a powerful remedy for patients with corneal pathologies and cataracts. In the patient, the PCIOL is implanted into the capsular bag, and the usage of a closed anterior chamber technique is recommended. 10-zero nylon sutures are used in the ten to twelve o'clock positions, and the donor corneal button is added. Continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) is accomplished with a capsulotomy inserted through the side port, and the PCIOL is inserted through an open anterior chamber route. This triple system for the remedy of corneal illnesses with cataracts seems to be possible and practical. The following is a case of a 47-year-old patient suffering from a corneal ulcer with pseudocornea due to trauma by an insect in the left eye. He was referred to the department of ophthalmology with complaints of diminution of vision, gradual and progressive, which is associated with excessive watering of the eyes and redness.
