J Cataract Refract Surg
February 2003
Purpose: To determine the in vitro bacterial adherence to intraocular lenses (IOLs) routinely used at 1 center.
Setting: University Hospital of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Methods: Four types of rigid IOLs (hydrophobic poly[methyl methacrylate] [PMMA] and hydrophilic heparin-surface-modified PMMA) and 5 types of foldable intraocular lenses (hydrophobic silicone, hydrophobic acrylic, and hydrophilic acrylic) were used in the experiment.
