[Comparison of the status of binocular function in corrected mononuclear aphakia and pseudophakia]

The authors investigated in a group of 31 adults with unilateral aphakia the state of binocular functions and evaluated the differences between a group of patients corrected with contact lenses and a group with pseudophakia. The investigation revealed surprising (excellent) results as regards the restoration of satisfactory binocular vision in particular in pseudophakias (85%), somewhat poorer results with contact lenses (72%) which is favourable for the return of patients into practical life.
