Clinical reports about Chinese-made silicone intraocular lens implantation and small-incision pha- coemulsification cataract surgery

Objective To investigate the clinical results of the non-phacoemulsification small incision cataract extraction and silicone intraocular lens implantation, compared to the effect of Chinese-made silicone intraocular lens and imported silicone intraocular lens. Methods Ninety-eight cases （103 eyes） were randomly divided into the small-incision after phacoemulsification and implanted intraocular lens of the domestical Exlen group and imported Cannon Starr group. Vision, anterior chamber inflammation and other complications were observed and recorded 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 6 months after surgery. Results The best corrected visual acuity ≥ 1.0 in 24 eyes （23.53%）, best corrected visual acuity ≥0.5 （70.59%）, no serious complications occurred.Conclusions The efficacy ofsmall incision phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation between domestically produced Exlen and imported Cannon Starr silicone intraocular lens is similar.
