[Lens implantation in glaucoma. Choice of surgery in various glaucoma situations].
Eyes suffering from cataract and glaucoma often present particular situations which require particular surgical approaches. The technique to be chosen mainly depends on the depth of the anterior chamber, on the state of the pupil, and on whether or not a fistulizing operation has already been performed. According to the given situation, different surgical options need to be considered. Five such different situations are presented and relevant surgical procedures are described. Although lens implantation in glaucoma usually proves to be more difficult than in normal cataractous eyes, careful selection of an appropriate surgical technique usually provides a good surgical result.
