[Implantation of a "pan-cameral" intraocular lens in Africa].
1993
: In modern medicine, extraction of the cataractous lens is followed by implantation of an artificial intraocular lens. The 2 main types of intraocular lenses, the anterior and the posterior chamber types, are essentially different in design. We present here 11 cases in which, due to lack of facilities, we were compelled to implant posterior chamber intraocular lenses in the anterior chamber of the eye. Postoperatively, visual acuity improved in 82% of the operated eyes.
