The authors evaluated the final functional results in 30 eyes where on account ofnuclear and cortical cataract an intraocular lens was implanted. The operationwas preceded by pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with internal gas tamponade onaccount of an idiopathic macular hole (IMD). The cataract the development ofwhich was recorded in 57 eyes was the manifestation of a late postoperativecmplication from a total number of 84 phakic eyes (67.9 %) which were operatedon account of IMD between April 1996 and June 1999. After cataract surgery thecorrected visual acuity improved in 23.3 % eyes. The investigation confirmedimprovement and stabilization of the final corrected visual acuity in 24 eyes (80 %)and confirmed the importance of these surgical procedures.
