To compare the results and the complications of cataract surgery by phacoemulsification in eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) and without pseudoexfoliation syndrome. ⋯ Phacoemulsification represents a safe method in cataract surgery in eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome in the presence of careful surgical technique: maximal mydriasis, circular continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis, adequate hydrodissection. On the long run, the postoperative results were comparable between eyes with PEX and the control group (without PEX).
