Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the effect of secondary suspended intraocular lens implantation after ocular trauma with lens-vitrectomy. Method: Twentyone cases (21eyes) of ocular trauma were subjected to lensvitrectomy, those whose corrected vision was 0.2 or more and intraocular pressure and eyeground were normal were subjected to the secondary suspended intraocular lens implantation 3 to 6 months later. Results: During a followed-up of 1 to 6 months (average 4.5 months), the corrected vision of 6 cases (6 eyes) was up to 0.6 or more, of 10 cases (10 eyes) was up to 0.3 to 0.5, of 4 cases (4 eyes) was between 0.1 to 0.2, and of 1 case was less than 0.1. The postoperative uncorrected vision was significantly higher than the preoperative, but the postoperative corrected vision was not significantly different from the preoperative. Conclusions: Secondary suspended intraocular lens implantation is a reasonable surgery for ocular trauma 3 to 6 months after lens-vitrectomy, but this needs experienced skill and proper cases.
