Introduction
To describe the technique of microincision cataract surgery and to present own initial results of this procedure.

Material and methods
73 eyes with senile uncomplicated cataract were operated. In 35 eyes traditional phacoemulsification was performed, in another 35 eyes phacoemulsification through microincision was done with implantation of Acri. Smart 46S and in 3 eyes with implantation of AcrySof SA30AL.

Results
In first part the differences between traditional phacoemulsification and through microincision, were described in detail. In our material we noted that microincision cataract surgery gives better visual acuity and less astigmatism in early postoperative period.

Conclusions
Phacoemulsification of cataract through microincision seems to be a promising technique, with some advantages over traditional phacoemulsification.
