Résumé

The case is reported of a 59-year-old woman, who reported decreased visual acuity (VA) in the left eye (LE). On examination, a corrected VA of finger count/ 30cm was observed in LE. Corneal oedema and folds in the Descemet's membrane were observed using the slit lamp. Anterior synechiae, iris atrophy, and corectopia were also found. Iridocorneal endothelial syndrome (ICE) was diagnosed. The treatment option was a combination of cataract surgery and automated endothelial keratoplasty with Descemet's membrane dissection (DSAEK). There were no complications during the operation, with a successful anatomical and functional recovery, with a VA of 0,8 being observed after one year. This result supports the efficacy of DSAEK in ICE syndrome, encouraging more studies to be carried out that should also support its efficacy in this syndrome.
