Abstract
RAMOS PEREIRA, Yanay and GUERRA GARCIA, Roberto Alejandro. Traumatic lesions of the crystalline lens and of the intraocular lens. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2012, vol.25, suppl.2, pp.526-535. ISSN 0864-2176.
Ocular injuries can develop secondary opacity of the crystalline lens as well as the loss of its anatomical position or intraocular lens dislocation. These disorders can frequently lead to devastating consequences if not properly assisted. Recent surgical techniques have dramatically changed the visual prognosis of these patients, achieving amazing anatomical and functional success. However, thorough examination of the patient and the selection of the right surgical time and surgery technique are the keys to attaining good final visual results.
Keywords : ocular trauma; traumatic cataract; crystalline; lens and luxated/subluxated intraocular lens.
