This report describes the changes in the higher-order aberrations (HOAs) and modulation transfer function (MTF) in anterior lenticonus in a case of Alport syndrome managed by using extended depth of focus (EDOF) IOL. The patient was a 23-year-old male complaining of diminution of vision in both eyes and had a best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 6/24 and 6/18 in the right and left eye, respectively. Slit-lamp examination revealed anterior lenticonus in both eyes. Optical coherence tomography showed temporal retinal thinning, and aberrometry revealed increased HOA and a reduction of MTF. The patient underwent sequential, bilateral, clear corneal phacoemulsification with EDOF IOL implantation. Postsurgery, improvements in BCVA and MTF with a significant reduction in HOA were noted. To conclude, the EDOF lens is a viable option for implantation in cases of Alport syndrome with anterior lenticonus.
