An automated vitrector was used to create an optical iridectomy in 15 eyes of 15 patients with leucomatous corneal opacities. The optical iridectomy was performed successfully through a standard 1.2 mm incision in all eyes. No intraoperative complications were observed, and there was no case of iatrogenic cataract formation. The median best corrected visual acuity improved from 1/60 (range light perception to 6/60) preoperatively to 6/24 (range 6/60 to 6/12) at the last follow-up (mean 28 days). An automated vitrector can be successfully used to create an optical iridectomy in eyes with leucomatous corneal opacities. This technique was safe and could be performed through a small surgical incision.
