RESUMEN
From 1978 to 1981 total of 122 perforating eye injuries were treated in the eye department of the Salzburg provincial clinic. In 25% of the cases treated the opacified lens had to be removed. The authors followed up 35 patients with unilateral post-traumatic aphakia. Of these, 27 proved suitable candidates for contact lenses. Visual function was good in 15 patients, but reduced in 12 due to post-traumatic changes. Ten patients achieved binocular vision, while in 12 it was possible to restore binocular vision by appropriate measures. The paper deals particular with the restoration of binocular vision and maintenance of binocular function in cases of unilateral post-traumatic aphakia.
