Abstract:AIM:To evaluate clinical effect of phacoemulsification with intraocular lens on uveitis complicated cataract.METHODS:Nineteen cases(21 eyes) with uveitis complicated cataract were treated by phacoemulsification with implantation of intraocular lens.According to level and scope of synechia of iris in operation,different ways were used to treat synechia of iris and microcoria.RESULTS:Nineteen eyes(90%) visual acuity were improved.The postoperative visual acuity was ≥0.1 in 17 eyes(81%),≥0.3 in 15 eyes(71%).There were no serious complications and no aggravation of old uveitis.CONCLUSION:The method of phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation is obviously effective in the treatment of uveitis complicated cataract.Preoperative control of uveitis for 3 months and dealing with synechia of iris and microcoria during operation can help reduce complications and improve visual acuity.
