[The secondary implant: yes or no?]

The paper presents the arguments for and against the secondary implant. It is considered that the best results were obtained with anterior chamber flexible implant, excepting the young pacients, for who the "iris-chip" lens is recommended. The minimal interval between the primary and secondary implant is unanimously estimated to be one year. The diminishing of risks for this kind of intervention rely on the correctness of the pacients selection. This implies a careful previous clinical and paraclinical analysis, as well as patients antecedents examination.
