The prevalence of visual impairment with
pseudophakia and aphakia are 0.025% and 0.033%.
Direct ophthalmoscopy was performed on all participants in a dark room to assess lens status (normal, moderate opacity, obvious opacity, aphakia [lens absent],
pseudophakia [presence of intraocular lens] with posterior capsule opacification [PCO] or
pseudophakia without PCO).

Adherence to these measures is especially important for individuals with
pseudophakia if the intraocular lens is poorly UV-absorbent, aphakia, or certain retinal diseases, and for individuals taking photosensitizing traditional or alternative medications or recently treated with photodynamic therapy for AMD.
Most of the patients in this study were having
pseudophakia in other eye.
On presentation to our ophthalmology clinic, this patient's best-corrected VA was 6/36 in each eye with quiet
pseudophakia and IOPs of 15mmHg in the right eye and 23mmHg in the left eye.

Prevalence of cataract and of aphakia/
pseudophakia among adults in the United States.
By contrast, although the risk of CME is extremely low, it should be considered in eyes at high risk of this condition (aphakia,
pseudophakia or retinal vascular or inflammatory disease).
The concept of the reverse pupillary block acting to maintain this abnormal contact and facilitates mechanical rubbing has relevance for both PDS and
pseudophakia [3, 23].
