OBJECTIVE: To investigate the outcome of secondary intraocular lens implantation, compare final visual outcome between different categories of surgeon, and evaluate care provided by teaching hospitals to patients with capsular complications. SETTING: Teaching hospital. DESIGN: Retrospective study. Subjects were recruited by examination of electronic medical records. All patients operated for corrective surgery following capsular complications during cataract surgery were included. All patient medical records were reviewed, and data were collected for 359 eyes. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Visual acuity and major complications. All collected data were entered into Microsoft Excel and analyzed by SPSS 17 software using cross tabulation and Chi-squared tests. RESULTS: Surgical intervention made a significant difference to the final visual outcome (P < 0.001). The category of the trainee had a significant effect on the final visual outcome (P = 0.021). CONCLUSION: Capsular complications during cataract surgery should be surgically treated to improve outcome.
