The treatment of 4 cases of retinal detachment following insertion of an intraocular lens.

4 cases of retinal detachment following the use of an intraocular lens have been described. Each offered a different problem in management, the results being satisfactory in 3 out of 4 cases. The ability to dilate the pupil and the clarity of the media, along with the maintenance of the proper position of the lens seem to be the most important factors in the treatment of these cases.
