ABSTRACT
Stableflex (ORC) is a PMMA anterior chamber intraocular lens with closed and flexible loops permitting the philosophy of "one size fits all" in 90% of the eyes. Late complications lead to marketing interruption in the USA in July 1987. In a review of 150 cases, we study the occurrence of complications corneal decompensation (4.5%), iridocorneal angle modification, cystoid macular edema (6.7%), explantation (n = 6). These observations suggest implications of physiopathological mechanisms which are examined.
