Abstract. We earlier performed bilateral cataract surgery on two females aged 82 and 85 years respectively. Both cases underwent extracapsular cataract extraction and insertion of PMMA intraocular lens(IOL)made by IOPTEX(model UVL 304-01). About 10 years after surgery,both patients visited us again for decreased visual acuity. Opacification of IOL was present bilaterally in one patient and unilaterally in the other. The opacity in the 3 affected eyes was granular and confluent,involved the whole layer of IOL,and was more pronouned in the pupillary zone. These cases illustrate that implanted PMMA IOL may undergo deterioration or opacity. We advocate lifelong followup of IOL-implanted patients.
