Abstract
Cataract of uveitis is difficult for extracapsular extraction (ECE) because of posterior synechiae. 21 cases (24 eyes) of the cataract were performed modern ECE with satisfactory results. Postoperative visual acuity was 0.1 or better in 20 eyes, and 0.5 or better in 7 eyes. The optimal time for the operation and the procedures were discussed. The authors opined that removal of the cataract could prevent recurrences in some severe refractory cases of uveitis.
