Summary
Eighteen traumatic eyes were inserted with Medallion® lenses in a very complex operation procedure. Eight patients were examined for binocular vision and compared with eight nonpseudophakic eyes. With the exception of tropic eyes, they regained binocular vision. We obtained very hopeful results for the management of seriously traumatic eyes through this study.
