In order to find a difference in the biocompatibility of different IOL-materials we examined the lens-surface of poly(methylmetacrylate)-(PMMA-), heparin surface-modified PMMA-(HSM-PMMA-) and hydrogel-IOLs in a prospective study by specular microscopy. Documentation consisted of cellular reaction, precipitates on the lens-surface and irregularities of the IOL-material. Early postoperative on HSM-PMMA and hydrogel-IOLs there were fewer fibroblast-like cells as compared to PMMA-IOLs. In the later postoperative period foreign body giant cells were seen on PMMA-IOLs in 26.6%, on HSM-PMMA and hydrogel-IOLs in less than 10% of the cases. In cases with increased postoperative inflammation or contact between uveal tissue and lens-surface we found more cells and in a higher percentage. Concerning precipitates on the surface and material irregularities we also found lens-specific differences. Clinical results were satisfactory for all lens-types.

The objective is to evaluate the effects of phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) in bullous keratopathy patients. Phototherapeutic keratectomy was performed in a pseudophakic patient with corneal decompensation after lens extraction, with the excimer laser Nidek EC 5000 after manual corneal epithelial debridement. There was no pain after fifteen days the laser application and during the eight months of follow-up. Visual acuity was unchanged. The phototherapeutic keratectomy excimer laser must be considered one more alternative for pain treatment in bullous keratopathy of pseudophakic patients.

Cellular growth on intraocular lenses can be observed by using a specular microscope. We examined in vivo the cellular pattern on the surface of implanted lenses during the early postoperative period in 63 patients. In every case inflammatory cells were noted on the lens surface at some point during the observation period. These often showed a spindle-like appearance resembling fibroblasts. The density of the cell population increased during the following days but usually did not exceed 100 cells/mm2. From the end of the first week, multinucleated giant cells may appear. In one case, a patient with a severe postoperative iritis and hypopyon demonstrated an extremely pronounced and long-lasting cellular proliferation.
