[Fusion and aniseikonic problems in unilateral aphakia (author's transl)]. 1979

E Dannheim, and H U Retzlaff

In 67 unilateral aphakic patients corrected with three different optic systems (conventional contact lens, spheric overcorrection and intraocular lens) aniseikonia and binocular vision are tested. Conventional contact lens leads to 7% aniseikonia and to fusion in only half of the cases. Patients with the two other systems show less than 3% aniseikonia and fusion in most cases. With each system only 10% of the patients reach normal stereoscopic vision. The poor results in unilateral aphakia corrected by conventional contact lens are pointed out.
