ABSTRACT
Unilateral, mostly traumatic cataract in children and adults is considered a good indication for lens implant surgery in developing countries. In Suriname fourteen patients with unilateral, non-senile cataract underwent pseudophakos surgery from 1975 to 1980. No major complications occurred. In ten of the fourteen patients good binocular vision was achieved. Two patients had good visual acuity with poor fusion. One patient had persistent deprivation amblyoplia. Six patients were ultimately lost to follow-up.(AU)
