Abstract

|
|
The authors were able to remove cataracts in four young patients intracapsularily.
Vitreous loss was complicated in two cases, which were in the patients of cataracta Juvenilia immatura anc cataracta traumatica in recent origin (20 anb 18-Years-old boys respectively) But in the other cases of long standing catarcta namely in the cataracta central is cogenita and cataracta membrancea (17-and 18-years-old boys) they could remove them without any complication.
They believe that the connection between the posterior lens capsule and the anterior limiting membrane of the vitreous is so loose in the long standing cataracts that they could remove the lens without vitreous loss. But in the immature cataracta or short standing cataracta in the young such as in the cataracta traumatica, there should be still strong adhesion between above mentioned structures and the result would be the vitreous loss in spite of weakened zonules bythe enzyme (Quimotrase).
