[Combination of phacoemulsification and implantation of soft intraocular lens: a most important new trend in surgery for cataract (first clinical experience)].
Sixty-seven patients with cataracts of different degree of maturity were operated on using phacoemulsification with implantation of soft IOLs through a dot self-hermetized incision. The advantages of this method over interventions with a large incision are a shorter postoperative rehabilitation (2-3 weeks), no postoperative astigmatism, low traumatism, and a lower risk of pre- and postoperative complications. Insertion of soft IOLs with injectors permits intraocular correction of vision through a dot incision used in phacoemulsification; no sutures are needed, and hospital stay is decreased to just 1-2 days.
