Phacoemulsification surgery in 105-year-old patients

A 105-year-old man presented to us in June 2005 with complaints of decreased vision in both eyes for more than 20 years and loss of vision in both eyes over the previous 3 months. Examination revealed visual acuity of 0.02 in the right eye and counting fingers in the left eye. Both eyes had accurate light perception in every direction. The intraocular pressure (IOP) was 10.2mmHg in the right eye and 9.8mmHg in the left eye
