We describe three cases of adherent leucoma with cataract who had unaided vision of hand movement close to face and were managed with relatively rare one step Triple procedure involving penetrating Keratoplasty, Extra-Capsular Cataract Extraction and IOL implantation(PKP-ECCE-PCIOL). Patients showed encouraging post-operative results, thereby providing impetus to study the role of this procedure in patients who are practically bilaterally blind in providing useful vision.
