Abstract
Intraocular lens (IOL) implantation after cataract operation has become
widespread practice while its clinical results are generally satisfying. Despite this
development, there still exist various problems in the design, materials and operative
methods. Intraocular lenses are primarily located in the immediate vicinity of uveal
tissue and are in direct contact with lens capsule tissue; this can cause a
pathophysiologic reaction comprising inflammatory cells and lens epithelial cells. The
reactive patterns of both types of tissue are generally considered indicators of IOL
biocompatibility.
