The authors presented results of 346 cataract extraction with IOL implantation--in 184 eyes anterior and in 162 posterior chamber. The follow-up ranged from 3 months to 6 years (mean 1.6 year). In 80.6% of cases, visual acuity after surgery was 0.6-1.0. Corneal astigmatismus 2.5-5.0 D was found in 31.2% of the eyes. The authors analysed early and late complications, taking into account the differences between anterior and posterior chamber IOLs implantation.
