Purpose: To observe the effect of the means of subconjunctiva injection with 5-Fluorouracil (5-Fu) and Triamcinolone to treat the membrane on the anterior surface of intraocular lens after traumatic cataract surgery.
Methods: The cases with membrane on the anterior surface of intraocular lens (MAI) after traumatic cataract surgery were observed. The control group included 49 eyes of 48 patients, and 52 eyes of 52 patients in therapeutic group. Subconjunctiva injection of 5-Fu and Triamcinolone treat MAI in therapeutic group. And that of Dexamethasone treat MAI in control group.
Results: The absorbed rate of MAI is 90.38% in therapeutic group,and that is 75.51% in control group. The vision of two groups was developed. And corneal epithelium erosion occurred in 6 eyes of therapeutic group.
Conclusion: The therapy of 5-Fu and Triamcinolone to treat the MAI after traumatic cataract surgery is safe and effective.
