The authors describe their own manual technique of extracapsular cataract extraction with subsequent implantation of a synthetic intraocular lens. They give an account of results assembled in 83 patients after ECE, incl. 60 where an intraocular lens was implanted. They achieved very satisfactory results with a minimal number of complications, one of which was more serious. In the conclusion the authors emphasize that final evaluation calls for a longer follow-up period.
