Visual function and complications after cataract surgery with bilateral multifocal intraocular lens implantation.

Purpose: To evaluate the visual function and complications after cataract surgery with bilateral Array SA 40N multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.

Material And Methods: This prospective study comprised 40 eyes of selected 20 patients undergoing cataract surgery with bilateral implantation of Array SA 40N (AMO). multifocal IOL.

Visual function and late complications after cataract surgery by phacoemulsification with primary posterior capsulotomy and intracapsular foldable intraocular lens implantation.

Purpose: Evaluation of visual function and late complications after cataract phacoemulsification with primary posterior capsulotomy and intracapsular foldable intraocular lens implantation in 22-months follow-up.

Material And Methods: Twenty five eyes of 25 patients (mean age: 53 years) were included in the study. All the eyes underwent primary posterior thermal capsulotomy and in-the-bag foldable IOL (Acrysof) implantation.

[Papillary blood flow and morphological parameters of the optic nerve head in patients with normal tension glaucoma, primary open angle glaucoma and in healthy volunteers].

The aim of the present study was to compare selected morphological parameters of the optic nerve head and papillary blood flow in patients with NTG, POAG and in healthy volunteers, as well as to find any possible correlation between selected morphological parameters and papillary blood flow. 21 glaucomatous and 31 normal eyes were diagnosed using HRT and HRF. Statistically significant differences within many morphological parameters like cup area, cup to disc, cup shape measure, rim volume, RFNL thickness, RFNL cross section and neuroretinal rim blood flow appeared.

[Posterior capsule opacification as a complication of the posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation].

Purpose: The aim of the study was to evaluate factors possibly effecting the posterior capsule opacification (PCO), after extra-capsular cataract extraction with the posterior chamber intra-ocular lens (IOL) implantation. Age of patients, refractive errors, technique of cataract extraction, intra- and postoperative complications and coexisting diseases were taken into consideration. In 1992-98 posterior laser Nd:YAG capsulotomy was performed in 222 eyes of 222 patients (134 women and 88 men) previously operated in 1st and IInd Eye Clinic.
