title: [Lensectomy in treatment of traumatic cataracts].
abstract: Results of pars plana lensectomy (36 cases) and ab externo lensectomy (14 cases) were presented. Intra- and postoperative complications, and the advantages of these procedures in traumatic cataracts were discussed. It was established that both procedures improved the visual acuity in the majority of patients although pars plana lensectomy had slightly lower rate of complications.
