Special attention was given to IOL power calculation dependent on axial length. Methods: Case report. 5 year old boy was presented at eye clinic University clinical center Tuzla with aniridia in both eyes, developed eye vision (VOD:0,2 and VOS:0,5), no nystagmus or strabismus, associated with infantile cataract in right eye.

Results: Cataract extraction with a foldable acrylic diaphragm IOL implantation is successfully used to correct aniridia in patients with congenital aniridia and infantile cataract. IOL calculation is dependent on age and axial length. Special attention should be given to posterior capsule opacification prevention with posterior capsulorexis and possible anterior vitrectomy. Conclusions: Cataract extraction with diaphragm IOL implantation can be used to correct aniridia with significant visual functioning improvement. Amblyopia can be prevented with appropriate cataract extraction timing and correct IOL calculation. Esthetic results are satisfactory and photophobia is reduced to minimum.
