Abstract:
Extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) with primary posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation was performed on 31 cases (38 eyes)of cataract with high myopia of axial length over 26mm and preoperative retinal visual acuity of ≥0.5. They were followed up for 3~26 months. Postoperative visual acuity s. c. was ≥0.5 in 65.8% of the eyes and visual acuity c.c. was ≥0.5 in 92.1% and 1.0~1.5 in 52.6% of the eyes. The results showed that it was fairly possible for cataract patients with high myopia to obtain normal vision after ECCE and IOL implantation when the preoperative retinal acuity was ≥0.5. The calculation of lens power and surgical procedures were described, and the indications for the operation and the managements of complications were discussed as well.
