Clear lens extraction and primary bilateral piggyback intraocular lens implantation were performed in both eyes of a patient with high hyperopia. Secondary piggyback intraocular lens implantation was performed in five eyes of three patients because of marked pseudophakic ammetropia. Visual outcomes and complications were recorded.Results: Significant decrease of ammetropia and increase in visual satisfaction were obtained. Mean best corrected visual acuities were 0.35 ± 0.21(0.16-0.8) preoperatively, and 0.65 ± 0.27 (0.3-1.0) postoperatively, res-pectively. Mean preoperative and postoperative refractions were +2.79 ± 6.19D (range :+9.00 ? 6.05) ve +0.48 ± 1.44 D (range: +2.12 -2.25), respectively. We encountered with two complications in two eyes. In one eye, decentralization of the intraocular lens necessitating reoperation was developed. We also observed an interlenticular membrane that did not reach to the visual axis in one eye with primary implantation. Conclusion: Primary piggyback intraocular lens implantation with clear lens extraction can be an effective and successful method for treatment of high hypermetropia. Secondary piggyback intraocular lens implantation seems to be a useful and easy method for correction of pseudophakic refractive error.Keywords: Çift göz içi lensi, İntraoküler lensTurkiye Klinikleri J Ophthalmol 2004, 13:68-725
