Abstract

The complications and their prevention during and after the implantation of iris clip- and iridocapsular lenses are evaluated. The follow-up period varied from 6-72 months. A careful selection of the patients and optimal conditions during the operation in endotracheal intubation are essential. Secondary cataracts (6%) and the lack of capsular synechiae to the haptic portion of the iridocapsular pseudophakos (7%) are the major complications.
