Surgery of the lens of the eye is almost exclusively limited to that which is done for a cataract. It is this type of operation which has it possible for the greatest number of the blind to recover vision. There is documentary historical evidence that surgery for cataracts was performed by the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans. The first recorded extraction of the opapue lens was done by Davial in 1745 who used a triangular knife to section the limbus. Subsecuently the fact that many eyes lost their sight because of infection prevented the widespread use of this impor tant surgical discovery until the Listerian epoch. Since 1870 and the advent of antisepsis the use of this operation for cataracts has become generalized so that today its use is widespread. Also there has been development and progress in the method of surgery. Although there are many serious complication which may follow the extraction of a lens for cataract, the incidence of such is relatively rare. This study is based on a survey of the results of 479 cataract operations each performed under similar conditions, but using a variety of operative techniques. These operations were performed at Y.U.M.C. Department of Ophthalmology between 1964 and 1973. The results of the study are summarized as follows: 1. From 1964 through 1973 there were 384 cataracts done on 225 males and 159 females. 2. Cataract extration were done upon 479 eyes. The types of cataracts are: senile 341, traumatic 57, complicated 35, congenital 21, other 25. 3. The incidence of operative complications was: vitreous loss 17.2%, capsul rupture 6.5%, iris prolapse 1.7%. 4. Early postoperative complications included: striate keratitis 55.2%, hyphema 22.9%, infection 3.1%, pupil drown up 1.5%, iris prolapse 1.5%, conjunctival bleb 1.3%. 5. The following were late postoperative complications: corneal edema 2.4%, glaucoma 2.1%, retinal detachment 2.0%, uveitis 1.1%.

Between Jan. 1971 and Dec. 1974, 324 eyes which received Sr90 irradiation postoperatively at Severance Hospital and 819 eyes which received Sr90 irradiation postoperatively at a private eye clinic were observed. Among 324 eyes which received postoperatives Sr90 irradiation at Severance Hospital and 819 eyes which received postoperatives Sr90 irradiation at a private eye clinic, the incidences of recurrence were 3.4% and 3.3%.

518 children (282 boys and 236 girs) of a primary school were determined under mydrin-p instillation. (1) Among 518 children, Ammetropia was 43.6% emmetropia 56.4%. (2) As to the distribution of refractive error 38.2% were hyperopia and 4.1% myopic. (3) There was an anuual decrease in the incidence of hyperopia both in the country and city. In contrast, the incidence of myopia showed an annual increase in city only. (4) The majority of refractive error were less than 3 diopter. (5) "With the rule" astigmatism was more commonly found than "against the rule". (6) The incidence of myopia among primary school children in the country had dropped to 4.1 % as compared with 13.7% in city.

We report of 3 cases of atypical coloboma of choroid. The two of these were one male and one female. A man aged 40 discovered atypical coloboma of choroid bilaterally with red-green color blindness. One of his son aged 6 discovered atypical coloboma of choroid bilaterally with nystagmus. One of his daughter aged 11 discovered of atypical coloboma of choroid bllaterally with alternating exotropia.

A case of malignant melanoma occurres in the palpebral conjunctiva is presented. A 30 year old woman had dark brownish, strawberry-like pedunclated mass in her lower conjunctiva which was removed and confirmed as malignant melanoma by histopathology.

645 children (330 boys and 315 girls) of a primary school were determined under 2% Cyclogyl. (1) Among 645 children, refractive error was 57.2% and emmetropia 42.8%. (2) As to the distribution of refractive errors, 33.8% were hyperopic and 11.4% myopic. Hyperopia was more common than myopia. (3) Hyperopic refractive error was increased until 7 years of age. Since then it has been decreased yearly. Myopic refractive error has been increased yearly since 8 years of age. (4) The refractive errors were relatively equall rate in girls(28%) and boys(29%). (5) Refractive errors were numerous around the age of 7(24.7%). (6) The degree of refractive errors varied, but in the great majority was less than 3 diopters. (7) As to the type of astigmatism, 75% were with the rule and 23.7 were againat the rule. (8) The myopic refractive errors were decreased in 1973 year(24.7%) than 1957 year(27.5%).

The authors analysed statistically 4,231 Cases of the ocular injuries among 19,204 Out-and Inpatients who visited to the local eye clinic at Young-Deong Po, where are many factories, from Jan. 1971 to Dec. 1971. The incidence of ocular injuries was increased about two times as much as that in 1964 at this eye clinic and was more prevalent than other places. It was shown that the incidence was exceedingly more prevalent in male than in female and iron piece was most freguent one among materials which caused trauma(64.7%). Most of the patients were improved well with proper early management of trauma. 6.6% resulted in blindness.
