Abstract
This review presents the main pros and cons of immediately sequential bilateral cataract surgery versus delayed sequential bilateral cataract surgery. The main arguments against immediately sequential bilateral cataract surgery are the likelihood of postoperative bilateral endophthalmitis and refractive errors. At the same time, a careful selection of patients, implementation of safety recommendations and the use of intracameral antibiotics, combined with the improvement of formulas for calculating intraocular lenses, provide the advantages of immediately sequential bilateral cataract surgery associated with the rapid rehabilitation of patients after surgery and economic reasons.
