Background: In this study we investigated the stability of rotation and changes of the capsulorhexis after implantation of an new hydrophilic acrylic foldable lens (Rayner Centerflex).
Methods: 44 patients with a mean age of 74±6.81 years received a Rayner Centerflex intraocular lens. The mean lens power was 21.22±2.18 D. Retroillumination photographs were made during surgery shortly after implantation of the IOL. Patients were examined 2 weeks, 2 and 6 month after cataract-extraction. Data of visual acuity, intraocular pressure, endothelial cell count and flaremeter examinations as well as retroillumination photographs were taken. All photographs were digitalized and evaluated referring to stability of rotation and changes of the capsulorhexis.
Results: Evaluation of the stability of rotation showed a rotation of the intraocular lenses under 10-15°. The size of the capsulorhexis showed changes under 5% of the intraoperative size.
Conclusions: This first results of stabiltiy of rotation and size of capsulorhexis after implantation of this hydrophilic acrylic lens point to a stabile situation in the capsular bag.
