title: [Secondary implantation of the Omnifit II].
abstract: In this paper the author discusses the problems of secondary intraocular lens implantation with the Kelman Omnifit II lens following intracapsular cataract extraction. Indication, surgical technique, and complications are described. In 13 cases unilateral and in three cases bilateral implantations were performed. The results, after an average follow-up period of two years, were good in 18 cases. In one complicated case corneal decompensation occurred after a lens dislocation. The continuing good visual acuity results and low incidence of implant-related intraocular problems in this series suggest that anterior chamber IOLs are a safe and effective means of correcting surgical aphakia.
