Intraocular Lens Implants: A Biocompatibility Review
The natural aging process of the eye inevitably leads to the formation of a cataract, resulting in an increasing loss of vision. A cataract is the clouding of the natural lens in the eye and represents a major physical impairment. Modern surgical techniques allow for removal of the clouded lens and replacement with a prosthetic intraocular lens.

Update of intraocular lens implantation in children
Cataract is a common problem that affects the vision in children and a major cause of amblyopia in children. However, the management of childhood cataract is tenuous and requires special considerations especially with regard to intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Age at which an IOL can be implanted is a controversial issue.
