To correct a high hyperopia and irregular astigmatism secondary to multiples refractive surgeries in a 45 years old female, radial incisions suture and intraocular (IOL) Acrysof Toric lens was performed. To correct the residual refractional error a pseudophakic toric supplementary IOL was implanted over the primary one.The initial visual acuity (VA) was LogMAR 0,9 and the final VA was LogMAR 0,3. The implant of IOL supplementary over a primary toric IOL appears to be a good option, increasing the visual acuity.
