[Risk factors for developing exudative reactions and fibrosis of the rear capsule after cataract extraction with implantation of an artificial lens].

A total of 132 patients were observed after cataract extraction with implantation of T-26 polymethacrylate and RSP-1 collagen copolymer intraocular lenses. Factors of risk of postoperative exudative reaction and fibrosis of the posterior capsule were determined, which depend on previous ophthalmic diseases (glaucoma, uveitis, diabetic angioretinopathy) and concomitant acute and chronic diseases of other organs (bronchopulmonary system, collagenosis, cholecystitis). Moderate changes in the hemogram before surgery are worthy of note.
