“…Table 3 shows the experience of Worst (Nordlohne, 1975) and Junge (1977). While the incidence of complications like shallow or fiat anterior chambe L hyphaema and iritis are already a drawback in this type of surgery, the added insertion of an intraocular lens can only increase the frequency of complications and aggravate the consequence.…”

The literature has been investigated on the prevalence of preexisting and complicating glaucoma in intraocular lens surgery. Few exact data are available. The problem of the management of preexisting primary or postoperative secondary glaucoma in pseudophakia is discussed, in particular the inevitable restrictions the intraocular lens imposes on medical therapy and eventual glaucoma surgery. Preexisting glaucoma should therefore be a relative contraindication to intraocular lens surgery.

We present the results achieved in 26 cases of trabeculectomy combined with intraocular lens implantation after extracapsular surgery in eyes with open-angle glaucoma. Phacoemulsification was performed in nine cases, planned extracapsular cataract extraction in 17. In 23 eyes, a posterior chamber lens was implanted; in three eyes an anterior chamber lens was used because of a ruptured posterior capsule. After a follow-up period ranging from four to 29 months, the postoperative results were satisfactory in all eyes treated. The patients achieved postoperative intraocular pressure of 20 mm Hg or less. In 28% of the cases, however, additional antiglaucomatous medication is required. Given proper indications and present-day surgical techniques, this combined procedure provides effective one-time treatment for cataract and glaucoma patients as well as optimal visual rehabilitation.
