title: [The judgement of the degree of disability in cases of aphakia and pseudoaphakia (author's transl)].
abstract: Since more than 40 years the judgement of the degree of disability in cases of unilateral aphakia is discussed. This means the effort toward an advisory objectivity on the one hand and human understanding for the patient's damage on the other hand. It is supposed to repeal the 4th emergency ordinance of 1932 and to pay pensions below 20% of the degree of disability, too. As long as new legislatory measurements do not exist, the maintenance of a pragmatic authoritative activity is plead for, which assigns for a pension-duty compensation in cases of unilateral aphakia and/or pseudoaphakia independent on the optic result.--The situation in cases of bilateral aphakia is also discussed.
