ABSTRACT
To evaluate and compare the clinical results of implantation of the Silicone and Acrysof IOLs in early postoperative period(to 3 months), we retrospectively analyzed 30 patients who had taken clear cornea incision and been implanted with Silicone IOL in one eye and Acrysof IOL in the other eye. There were no statistically significant difference in postoperative corrected visual acuity, corneal edema and postoperative astigmatic changes between silicone and acrysof IOLs. But, the rates of postoperative capsular fibrosis and contracture of Silicone IOL was higher than those of Acrysof IOL. In conclusion, in the degree and rate of after-cataract, Acrysof IOLs are more useful than silicone IOLs; therefore, more excellent in longterm visual prognosis. Further studies will be needed for the evaluation of clinical safety and efficacy.
