²Batman State Hospital, Eye Clinic, Batman/TURKEY We report an unusual case of bilateral megalocornea and cataract in a patient who underwent phacoemulsification surgery. A 1-piece acrylic IOL and a 3-piece acrylic IOL with polymethyl methacrylate haptics were implanted into the capsular bag in the left and right eye respectively. Despite decentered IOLs, the outcomes of the surgeries were acceptable. Using the Holladay II Formula for calculating IOL power provided satisfying results as well.
