After 1970 MANSCHOT's histopathological findings (see bankruptcy VIII) and the will to lessen disloca tions and the advance of ECD to a minimal caused DINKHORST to consistent with shape fundamental iridocapsular lens implant operations in instances with senile cataract as weH.

The distribution ofthe sufferers' a while in those a hundred and seventy circumstances is, consequently, really diverse from that of the 677 iris clip lens implant operations (see Fig. 40). The strategy ofthe iridocapsular lens implantation is defined on web page fifty nine. Numerical information are proven in Fig. forty-one. Noteworthy during this desk are the subsequent issues: 1. the common age at operation of 30.82 years that's very low in comparison with the 65.80 years for the iris clip lens sequence, should be defined by way of the fairly !arge nurober of kids during this sequence (see Fig. 40).
