Zusammenfassung

Bei 3 Patienten wurden mit dem YAG-Laser Fremdkörperriesenzellen von der Kunstlinsenvorderfläche entfernt. Diese Behandlungstechnik verursachte keine Beschädigung der Intraokularlinse (IOL). Bei einem Patienten kam es postoperativ zur Verbesserung des Visus. Der intraokulare Druck (IOD) stieg postoperativ in keinem Fall an. Es traten keine vermehrten entzündlichen Reaktionen auf. In einem Fall mit chronisch rezidivierender Iridocyklitis traten innerhalb eines Monats wieder Fremdkörperriesenzellen auf der IOL auf. In allen Fällen wurde prä- und postoperativ eine photographische Dokumentation mit dem Spiegelmikroskop durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse werden diskutiert.

Summary

3 patients having foreign-body giant cells on their lenssurface were treated by YAG-laser. This technique did not cause any lens damage. One patient showed an increase in visual acuity. In no case the intraocular pressure was elevated postoperatively. There were no increased inflammatory reactions to be seen. In one case with chronic iridocyclitis foreign body giant cells occured again within one month after operation. Pre- and postoperative specular microscopy with photographic documentation was performed in all cases. The results are discussed.
