Intra ocular lens implantation: a full circle. 1985

R C Loh, and K L Chew, and R C Phua, and H N Tong

Four hundred cases of intra ocular lens implantation of the posterior chamber variety were analysed. Operative and post operative complications were minimal. Testing of visual acuity after surgery produced good results. Visual rehabilitation was readily achieved. The development of the various types of intraocular lens implants is traced and their associated problems discussed. It is concluded that the modern posterior chamber lens provides the most effective mode of treatment. Some contra-indications, however, are emphasized.
