Abstract
The report describes a 55-years-old man with neurofibromatosis type 1 who had a non-mature cataract in the eyes. Adults with neurofibromatosis type 1(NF1) usually have multiple, bilateral Lisch nodules (pigmented iris hamartomas). They can be found in all zones of the iris as smooth, gelatinous-appearing masses protruding from the iris surface.
We have done phacoemulsificatio et implantatio IOL in the capsular beg. Preoperative and perioperative midryasis were optimal. We didn’t have any complications during the operation. Lisch Nodules are one of the criteria for the diagnosis of NF type1.They are asymptomatic and do not result in any ophthalmologic complications.
