title: [Comments based on 256 intraocular implants placed after extracapsular extraction of the crystalline lens].
abstract: Results of 256 intraocular lens implants after extracapsular cataract extraction are analysed with a mean follow-up period of four years. Different models of intraocular lenses were used: mainly the Binkhorst 2 loops model, but also posterior chamber lenses, and a few anterior chamber lenses. Indications and special cases are discussed, according to the type of cataract: senile, traumatic, combined cataract and glaucoma. Peroperative (intraocular lens-endothelium contact, vitreous loss) and postoperative complications (non-fixation of the lens, corneal bullous dystrophy, cortical material remmants, uveitis, cystoid macular oedema, retinal detachment) are described.
