Original abstract
The results of 106 intracapsular cataract extractions with implantation of an anterior chamber lens are reported. The indications were monocular cataract in 63%, bilateral cataract in 15%, cataract with maculopathy in 10%, practical monocularity, parkinsonism etc. in 12%. Postoperative visual acuity was 0.4 to 1.0 in 88%; diminished vision was caused by maculopathy, central venous thrombosis, or glaucoma in 12%. Postoperative complications: pupillary block in 8.5%, glaucoma in 10.5%, cystoid macular edema in 3.6%, and decentration of implant in 1%. The need for postoperative care of patients with intraocular implants after cataract surgery is pointed out.
