title: [Results of surgical treatment in dislocated lenses. II. Intracapsular lens extraction in adults (author's transl)].
abstract: 40 subluxated and dislocated lenses were extracted intracapsularly between 1970 and 1974. In 6 cases there was a displacement into the vitreous; in 4 an acute secondary angle-closure glaucoma was present (3 times due to dislocation of the lens into the anterior chamber). Surgical extraction with a corneal incision was undertaken under general anaesthesia after attachment of a flieringa ring to the globe. In 16 eyes a transpupillary vitrectomy was necessary. The morphological and functional results were satisfactory: decrease in visual acuity due to surgical intervention did not occur, and in 32 eyes vision was considerably improved.
