摘要
The optical effect of posterior chamber lens decentration is a well-recognised complication of cataract surgery causing significant symptoms even with the larger-diameter implant optics available. In this paper we present the results of a study of implant decentration occurring with extracapsular surgery, in which we compared a group of patients with one tear in the anterior capsule with a second group with two tears in the anterior capsule. Our findings show that lens decentration is greater in those patients with two tears of the anterior capsule, and this difference is statistically significant.
