[Visual results of extracapsular cataract surgery with posterior chamber lenses].
In a total of 1663 consecutive patients best corrected visual acuity after extracapsular cataract extraction with implantation of a posterior chamber lens was determined. Average follow-up time was 21 months. Visual acuity improved from an average of 0.15 preoperatively to 0.6 postoperatively. In the absence of other ocular disorders postoperative vision averaged 0.7. The visual outcome was clearly related to the age of the patients and showed a continuous decline for operations performed after the age of 69 years.
