Objective: To evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of iridoplasty during anterior segment reconstruction (ASR). Study Design: A prospective, non-randomized study of postoperative results and pupil shapes before and after iridoplasty. Setting: Dokuz Eylül University, School of Medicine, Department of Ophthalmology. Patients: A consecutive series of 41 cases, 23 men and 18 women, who had undergone iridoplasty during ASR are included. Pupils were graded according to their shapes from Grade 0: round to Grade 4: shapeless pupil. Main Outcome Measures: Indications for iridoplasty, pupil shape, postoperative dilation ability of pupil, complications related to iridoplasty. Results: The aims of the iridoplasty were to bring the iris to its normal anatomic position in 26 cases (63%), to make the pupil round in 21 cases (51%), to make the dilated-fix pupil smaller in nine cases (22%) and to prevent potential postoperative diplopia in five cases (12%). Mean preoperative pupil roundness was grade 2.9 and decreased to grade 1.3 postoperatively. Pupillary diameter after maximal dilation was less than 4 mm in nine cases, postoperatively. The most frequent complications were posterior synechia (nine cases), fibrinous reaction( eight cases), iris hole (five cases), immobile lens (five cases) and iris chafing (one case). Conclusions: Complications related to iridoplasty are usually minor but if the pupil is very small after the operation, there may be some difficulties in posterior segment examination and surgery.
