[The multifocal intraocular lens].

The new multifocal intraocular lens gives 2 simultaneous foci by combination of conventional refraction and diffraction. The diffraction is induced by circular microsteps on the posterior face of the lens. The first clinical results are good: 3 patients out of 4 obtain a far-vision of 5/10 or better and a near-vision of P3 or better without spectacle correction.

Pseudophakic glaucoma.

Pseudophakia by itself does not cause ocular hypertension. Pseudophakic glaucoma should be defined as glaucoma that would not be present in an eye if it were not pseudophakic. Ocular hypertension was noted in 15 (9%) of 166 pseudophakic eyes. Only 5 eyes (3%) had ocular hypertension requiring treatment. Three of these eyes (1.8%) had permanent ocular hypertension resulting in chronic pseudophakic glaucoma. This study shows that pseudophakic glaucoma is no more frequent than aphakic glaucoma. Secondary glaucoma in pseudophakic eyes is not always related to the presence of the lens. Pupillary block glaucoma and UGH syndrome are directly related to the lens. Secondary glaucoma by ghost cells and by pigment-dispersion are also in some cases directly related to the lens.
