Abstract
Lter's implant cytology technique. Scanning and transmission electron microscopic studies were performed. Macrophages, lymphocytes, and fibroblast-like cells were the major components identified. Occasional formations of foreign-body giant cells were seen. The responses observed on IOLs implanted in the rabbit eye were generally milder than those observed on IOLs implanted in the mouse peritoneal space. *Reprint requests to K.
