title: [Effects of a proteolytic enzyme lekozim on the course of some types of cataract].
abstract: A microdensitometric analysis of photo negatives of optic sections of lenses of patients with posterior capsule cataracts and with cortical cataracts has shown a positive effect of lekozim on the course of such cataracts. Analysis of microdensitograms of transparent lenses in subjects aged 20 to 80 has shown an augmentation of the optic density in all the lens laminae. A positive effect of the proteolytic agent is explained by the recovery of the intercellular fluid microcirculation via the posterior capsule of the lens.
