G Stiegler

Since 1980 a total of 1014 anterior chamber lenses, type Kelman II and Omnifit, have been implanted, 308 of them as a secondary procedure. Unilateral and bilateral implantation was performed in normal aphakic eyes, in aphakic glaucoma, after injuries, combined with keratoplasty, and in one case in keratophakia. The cases were not preselected. Implantation was successfully accomplished in 100% of the cases.
