description The problem of surgical treatment of cataracts in patients with chronic uveitis is relevant due to a high proportion of intra­ and postoperative complications, despite the development of modern microinvasive technologies. Associated complications of chronic uveitis (adhesions in the anterior eye segment, secondary glaucoma, vitreous opacities, cystoid macular edema, etc.), difficulties in intraocular lens implantation, the need for pharmacological support and subsequent rehabilitation of patients complicate surgery, while many issues remain controversial. Late patients’ recourse for medical aid, severity and duration of the inflammatory process contribute to irreversible changes in the retina, which results in poor functional results of surgery. The development of surgical technologies minimizing the risk of intra­ and postoperative complications is relevant today.
