    Author: Lin Z, Zou Y, Yang W.
    Journal: Zhonghua Yan Ke Za Zhi; 2001 Jan; 37(1):31-3. PubMed ID: 11864385.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To discuss the effect of black-diaphragm intraocular lens implantation in the management of cataract or aphakia with aniridia. METHODS: Thirty-three cases (34 eyes) of black-diaphragm posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation were retrospectively analyzed, among which 18 eyes had undergone primary intraocular lens implantation and 16 secondary intraocular lens implantation. RESULTS: After 1-52 months of follow-up, postoperative corrected visual acuities were greater-than-or-equal 1.0 in 17 eyes, 0.5-0.9 in 11 eyes and 0.1 -0.4 in 6 eyes. The complications included intraoperative ciliary body bleeding in 2 eyes and retinal detachment in one eye. CONCLUSION: Black-diaphragm intraocular lens implantation is effective in the management of cataract or aphakia with aniridia.
