title: [Results of cataract extraction and lens implantation].
abstract: 98 patients were invited for a follow-up examination 2 years after cataract extraction. They then completed a questionnaire dealing with their daily functioning, comparing the situations prior to and 2 years after the operation, and were asked as to their satisfaction with the results of the operation. Statistically significant improvement was found in measurements of both near and distance vision and in performance of most aspects of daily functioning. Most patients were pleased with results of the operation.
