[Intraocular lenses in patients with diabetes mellitus].
Presented are personal experiences concerning the application of artificial intraocular lenses in patients with diabetes and cataract. Operated were patients aged 50-76 years in whom implantation of an artificial lens of Alcon or Cilco was performed either to the anterior or posterior chamber. During the qualification for surgery eliminated were patients with proliferating retinopathy, with rubeosis iridis (with or without secondary glaucoma) and with juvenile diabetes. In 16 patients the obtained visual acuity was 0.8-1.0, in one female patient 0.5; in the remaining 2 persons the visual acuity amounted 0.2 and 0.3. These patients exhibited a simple exudative retinopathy with a macular oedema and after surgery they were subjected to a laser therapy. Observation of our material showed that qualifying diabetic patients for cataract extraction and taking into consideration the over mentioned contraindications one can obtain good results similar as in other patients with cataract.
