Abstract:
The functional and clinical results of implantation of various models of intraocular lenses (IOL) were assessed, by taking into account its procedure (applying a forceps or an injector). The optimum technology for implanting elastic IOLs was proposed, depending on the etiology of cataract. Analysis of surgical outcomes in 172 patients (207 eyes) revealed the characteristic complications, the specificity of implantation of various models of elastic IOLs, the advantages and disadvantages of the forceps- and injector-based implantations in age-related cataract, in patients with complicated cataracts in the presence of glaucoma, myopia, diabetes, and moderate- and high-degree hyperopia.
