First, there is a tissue called lens in human eyes. Under normal circumstances, it is transparent. Only when light reaches the retina through it and some refractive stroma can it clearly see external objects. Once the lens is turbid for some reasons, it will affect the retinal imaging and make people unable to see clearly. This is called cataract.

Second, according to the relationship between lens nucleus and capsule, cataract surgery can be divided into intracapsular and extracapsular. After removing the turbid lens, an intraocular lens is often placed. The position of the intraocular lens can be placed in the anterior chamber or posterior chamber, and in the posterior chamber, it can be inside or outside the capsule. It can restore the vision of the eye.
