Surgeries in cases of uveitic cataracts are often complicated due to various factors like non-dilating pupil, presence of posterior synechiae and recurrence of inflammation in post-op period. Various opinions exist regarding the preferred surgical technique, either SICS or phacoemulsification and the type of IOL used in such cases. This is review article of all the studies conducted so far regarding the surgical management of uveitic cataracts and their visual outcome.
