ABSTRACT
Posterior chamber intra-ocular lens has become an important tool for visual rehabilitation after cataract surgery. We have studied the incidence of the post-operative complications in our department. We have selected 35 eyes to receive posterior chamber lens after extracapsular surgery and 35 eyes with no implant, that underwent the same procedure, were taken so control, Fluorescein angiography was done for every case at 6 weeks and 3 months postoperatively or if there is an unexplained change in visual acuity. We have found a low incidence of both anterior and posterior segment complications also the incidence of cystoid macular oedema was low compaired to the control group
