Postoperative uveitis is a complication of cataract surgery; this complication may compromise the functional outcome and sometimes loss of the eye ball. Between 1995-1996 in Ophthalmological Clinic from Cluj five hundred patients underwent one surgical procedure for cataract; from these in fifteen cases occurred postoperative uveitis. At thirty cases from them was practised the implant by posterior chamber and by anterior chamber at two cases. The debut and the clinical aspect shows the exogenic character in two cases and the endogenic character in thirty cases. The postoperative uveitis frequency in the cataract surgery was 0.4 per cent. In two cases the outcome was the functional loss of the eyeball. The endogenous uveitis answered favorable at the treat with topic and general corticotherapy. In none of the cases was the implant explantation effected.
