| Popis: | The experience is presented of three independent surgeons using Hydrogel posterior chamber intraocular lenses in a combined series of 157 endocapsular cataract extractions. One hundred and fifty of these eyes were examined after a minimum follow-up period of one year and 92.0% achieved visual acuity of 6/12 or better, and 98.6% achieved this if pre-existing pathology was excluded. Insertion of this lens has proved to be simple, the adaptions of technique required are described and the complications are presented and analysed. |
