The review summarizes the results of surgical treatment of cataracts in patients with keratoconus. The major challenges of phacosurgery in keratoconus are associated with intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation, choice of the most appropriate IOL model and additional interventions required to stabilize keratectasia and reduce corneal irregularity.
