“…In general, where cryosurgery has been used the results of cataract excrations have clearly been considered more successful ( Jensen 1965, Rosengren & Enoksson 1966, Metz 1967, Vitali 1967, Buschmann & Karrakchou 1968, Duguid 1968, Goldberg 1968, Vancea, Niculescu & Hagiopol 1968, Worthen & Brubaker 1968, Seedorff & Lawaetr 1969. For example, the number of intracapsular extractions in these materials varies between 82-100 per cent.…”

In 1961 one of the authors made a retrospective study, in which results obtained from 470 cataract operations performed by using zonulolysis and an equal number of the same kind of operations without zonulolysis were compared to each other (Castrtn 1961). It was verified then that there were noticeably better results with alphachymotrypsin. The following results reveal an especially significant statistical difference: 1) The ruptures of the lens capsules decreased in the enzyme group from 21 to 1 1 per cent. 2) Vitreous prolapses during the operation occurred in 13 per cent of the cases, but in the group, in which the enzyme was not used, the corresponding percentage was 23 per cent. 3) After the cataract extraction 74 per cent of the enzyme group and 66 per cent of the control group had good vision (0.5-1.6). 4) Four per cent of the enzyme group and eight per cent of the control group had final vision less than F.C. 1 m or blindness.In the same year that the study mentioned above was printed, Krwawicz published his cryoextraction method. Since then many results have been published about materials on which the procedure mentioned was used. But there are relatively few studies in which an attempt has been made to compare the

A retrospective evaluation of the results obtained with primary implantation of an iris clip lens, performed in four Danish eye departments, is given. Altogether 203 implants were carried out. The mean age of the patients at the time of operation was 77 years. Seventeen patients had bilateral implantation. Besides the cataract, the age of the patients was main indication for implantation. Contributing indications were monolateral cataract, macular degeneration, and general somatic or psychic incapacity. The incidence of more serious complications was (more than one complication in some eyes): corneal dystrophy 13/203, deposits on the clip lens or in the pupil 18/203, secondary glaucoma 2/203, macular oedema 2/203, late recurrent hyphaema 2/203 and dislocation of the clip lens 6/203. Seven clip lenses were removed. A corrected visual acuity of 6/12 or above was found in 56% of the cases postoperatively. In spite of the complications it is considered justifiable to continue with clip lens implantation in elderly patients, to solve the optical problems following aphakia.
