[Binocular vision following posterior chamber lens implantation]

Binocular vision was tested in 106 pseudophakic patients 1 week after unilateral implantation of a Simcoe posterior chamber lens with 10 degrees angled haptics. Binocular functions are resumed immediately after surgery. Visual acuity, or rather the difference in visual acuity between the right and left eyes is mainly responsible for the quality of binocular vision. Heterophoria, anisometropia, and aniseikonia are less important.
