Abstract
The corneal endothelial damage in extracapsular extraction and insertion of a two-loop lens (Binkhorst) using the deep chamber technique was investigated by specular microscopy. The endothelial cell loss in 25 patients was 15%. During a mean postoperative period of 15 months a further endothelial cell loss of 5% occurred. The effect of a direct contact between an intraocular lens and the corneal endothelium is demonstrated by a case of luxation of a two-loop lens into the anterior chamber.
