[Secondary implantation of posterior chamber lenses]. 1989

U M Klemen, and P Niederreiter, and J Leitner, and P Gorka

In 27 eyes, secondary implantation of posterior chamber lenses was performed. The precondition was the existence of a part of the posterior lens capsule with zonular fibers. After cleaning of the capsule surface by means of irrigation/aspiration as well as lysis of posterior synechiae and if necessary, anterior vitrectomy, the lens was fixated in the ciliary sulcus using air and healon. Postoperatively, the visual acuities were found to be the same or better in comparison with the preoperative readings. The two main complications were decentralization of the intraocular lens and further opacification of the posterior lens capsule.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007903 Lens Capsule, Crystalline The thin noncellular outer covering of the CRYSTALLINE LENS composed mainly of COLLAGEN TYPE IV and GLYCOSAMINOGLYCANS. It is secreted by the embryonic anterior and posterior epithelium. The embryonic posterior epithelium later disappears. Capsule, Crystalline Lens,Capsules, Crystalline Lens,Crystalline Lens Capsule,Crystalline Lens Capsules,Lens Capsules, Crystalline
D007908 Lens, Crystalline A transparent, biconvex structure of the EYE, enclosed in a capsule and situated behind the IRIS and in front of the vitreous humor (VITREOUS BODY). It is slightly overlapped at its margin by the ciliary processes. Adaptation by the CILIARY BODY is crucial for OCULAR ACCOMMODATION. Eye Lens,Lens, Eye,Crystalline Lens
