Lens Implant Cytology

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1982
SUMMARY A simple cytological technique for the demonstration of cellular membranes or single cells on intraocular lens implants is presented. This allows for the study of the nature and the behavior of cells, which grow on the outer surface of the implants.

Lens implantation in children

Ophthalmic Paediatrics and Genetics, 1988
Two objections to lens implantation in children are answered. After the second year of life the size and the strength of the implanted lens does not have to be changed any more. Long-term follow-up (more than ten years) of Binkhorst 2-platinum loop lenses in traumatic cataract gives indication of slight decrease in visual function.

Secondary intraocular lens implantation

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1987
We conducted a retrospective study of our first 75 consecutive patients receiving secondary intraocular lens implants. Ninety-seven percent had postoperative visual acuities of greater than or equal to 20/40; 86%, greater than or equal to 20/25. Four percent of patients lost two or more lines of vision.

Bilateral Intraocular Lens Implantation

Ophthalmology, 1983
A study of 1796 consecutive cataract patients in a posterior chamber intraocular lens implant (IOL) series revealed 373 patients (20.8%) who had bilateral IOLs. Visual acuity was 20/40 or better in 87% of first eyes operated and 90% in second eyes. The major cause of vision less than 20/40 was senile macular choroidal degeneration in both first and ...

Piggyback intraocular lens implantation

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000
The piggyback method of implanting two intraocular lenses in one eye has been successfully expanded to address pseudophakic refractive error in normal eyes and eyes that have undergone post-penetrating keratoplasty. Piggyback implantation has been combined with the use of newly available minus-power lenses to provide appropriate power for a cataract ...

Piggyback intraocular lens implantation

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1998
Piggyback intraocular lenses (IOLs), used in eyes requiring high IOL powers, are generally implanted in the capsular bag. Proper position of the IOL loops is, however, an unresolved issue. In this case of piggyback implantation in both eyes of a patient, the loops of the second IOL were positioned at an axis between 45 and 60 degrees away from those of

Lens Implants and Implantation: Determining Lens Power and Design

2020
When considering a cataract extraction, certain IOL measurements are required to assure a satisfactory surgical outcome. Virtually all cataract procedures require a lens implant. After all, your surgeon is going to remove the patient’s biologic lens, and a replacement lens of an appropriate power – calculated to the patient’s needs – is paramount. This

Secondary Intraocular Lens Implantation

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1977
SUMMARY Mere aphakia is not an indication for secondary intraocular lens implantation. However, many patients with positive indications may be benefited most strikingly by this procedure. These indications are illustrated and results of the author's first 65 secondary implantations are analyzed.

Extracapsular surgery in lens implantation

American Intra-Ocular Implant Society Journal, 1977
SUMMARY Extracapsular surgery is an ideal type of cataract surgery in combination with lens implantation insofar as stability and fixation of the lens is greatly enhanced. However, a number of complications can be expected. The main problem of extracapsular surgery is posterior capsule opacification.
