The cataracts were suspected to be congenital in all alpacas. Concurrent congenital ocular abnormalities were common in the operated eyes and included microphakia, persistent patent hyaloid arteries, and persistent patent tunica vasculosa lentis. No significant intraoperative complications were identified in any cases. In the immediate postoperative period, uveitis was mild\u2010to\u2010moderate in most operated eyes, ocular hypertension was not detected, and clinically significant corneal edema did not occur in any eyes. The mean (\u00b1 standard deviation) duration of clinical follow\u2010up after surgery was 32\u00a0months (\u00b125\u00a0months). A peri\u2010incisional corneal stromal ulcer associated with fibrinous uveitis was identified in a single eye during recheck examination 4\u00a0weeks postoperative that resolved with medical therapy. Long\u2010term complications included unilateral glaucoma in two alpacas that resulted in vision loss.
