Abstract
- A retrospective study of 50 consecutive, planned extracapsular cataract extraction with Sheets posterior chamber lens(Model 30LE) inserted in the capsular bag on the outcome between six and twelve months postoperatively, was carried out. Visual improvement of 20/40 or better was obtained in 94.7% as the patients with preexisting ocular pathology were excluded. The postoperative complications consisted of transient iritis in three cases, posterior capsular opacity in one case, and iris capture in one case. The endocapsular cataract extraction with Sheets lens implantation seems to be more safe and effective surgical procedure than any other technique in the case of hypermature cataract.
