The authors describe a patient who was found to have bilateral, peripheral iris cysts during preoperative ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) assessment prior to toric implantable collamer lens (TICL) implantation. TICL implantation was undertaken with no intraoperative or postoperative complications. The TICLs remained in stable position over a follow-up period of 15 months. The presence of solitary temporal iris cysts had no impact on final visual outcome or TICL position.
