We identified 28 eyes; because of less than 2 weeks follow-up, 4 eyes were excluded from the current study. All eyes had lens subluxation/dislocation and visually significant cataract. Additional indications for surgery included secondary glaucoma (10 eyes), vitreous hemorrhage (3 eyes) and retinal detachment (1 eye).\nRESULTS: The postoperative follow-up interval ranged from 6 to 61 months (mean 18.5 months). Preoperative visual acuity (VA) ranged from 20/60 to hand motion and was 20/100 or better in 6 eyes (25%). Postoperatively, 19 eyes (79%) improved to 20/100 or better. Five eyes had subsequent surgery for the following indications: retinal detachment (2 eyes), poorly controlled glaucoma (2 eyes), and epiretinal membrane formation (1 eye).\nCONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing PPL, PPV and scleral fixation of PCIOL for cataract after a closed-globe injury, a substantial visual improvement occurred in a majority of the involved eyes.","tracks":[{"project":"PubmedHPO","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":174,"end":183},"obj":"HP_0000518"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"PubmedHPO"}]},{"project":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":117,"end":369},"obj":"OBJECTIVE"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":379,"end":882},"obj":"METHODS"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":892,"end":1316},"obj":"RESULTS"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":1330,"end":1511},"obj":"CONCLUSIONS"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"PubmedHPO","color":"#b1ec93","default":true},{"id":"PubMed_Structured_Abstracts","color":"#ec93cb"}]}]}}
