pubmed:abstractText
A series of one hundred consecutive cases of intracapsular cataract extractions with insertion of the Copeland iris plane intraocular lens implant are presented. The preoperative management, surgical technique, and postoperative management are discussed in detail. Complications that may arise during surgery, early postoperative phase (first week), convalescent period (one to six weeks), and early long-term phase (1.5 through eight months) are presented and discussed. Short-term results to data have been most gratifying. The incidence of surgical complications closely parallels any consecutive series of one hundred intracapsular cataract extractions without lens implantation. The usual problems associated with adjustment to aphakia (particularly unilateral) are eliminated to the relief of patient and surgeon. The level of patient satisfaction is extremely high in comparison with standard cataract surgery. Elderly patients experience a sense of social rejuvenation that is phenomenal.
