Popis: AIM: To compare the outcomes of vision using two different intraocular lens (IOL) replacement techniques, iris-fixated foldable intraocular lens (IF-IOL) and scleral-fixated foldable intraocular lens (SF-IOL) in patients with insufficient capsular support. METHODS: Total 63 eyes (62 patients) with insufficient posterior capsule support underwent replacement of IF-IOL or SF-IOL between January 2008 and August 2011. Outcome measures included changes in visual acuity, slit lamp examination, refractive indices and corneal curvatures. RESULTS: The mean improvement of uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) was greater in IF-IOL group compared to the SF-IOL group (0.43 D±0.19 D vs 0.35 D±0.18 D, P
