Editor’s note: This is the first long-term, prospective, multicenter randomized, controlled trial comparing anterior chamber intraocular lenses (ACIOLs) with posterior chamber (PC) IOLs in patients with cataract surgery complicated by vitreous loss. The previously reported 1-year results of the trial indicated that PCIOLs led to better visual outcomes than ACIOLs in these patients(
Am J Ophthalmol 2003;136:1–9). In the present article, the authors compare the outcomes of the two groups in terms of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at 2, 3, and 4 yearsafter surgery.
