The impact of capsulorhexis diameter, localization and shape on posterior capsule opacification
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of capsulorhexis diameter, localization and shape on posterior capsule opacification (PCO) development after cataract extraction with phacoemulsification. MATERIAL/METHODS We retrospectively analyzed of 297 patients who underwent phacoemulsification and AcrySof SA60AT implantation. In a first group of 97 patients, 53 received small c...
متن کاملPosterior Capsule Opacification: An Overview
DOS Times Vol. 12, No. 4 October, 2006 Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) and posterior chamber intraocular lens (PC IOL) decentration still remain two major complications of successful extracapsular cataract surgery (ECCE) or phacoemulsification. Ridley, who performed the first intraocular lens implantation in 1949, himself noted these complications in his earliest patients.7 In his initial...
متن کاملPosterior capsule opacification in mice.
OBJECTIVE To present a new model of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) in mice. METHODS An extracapsular lens extraction was performed in 28 consecutive mice. Animals were humanely killed 0 and 24 hours and 3 and 14 days after surgery. Eyes were enucleated and processed for light microscopy and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS In 20 animals (71%), the eye appeared well healed before death. ...
متن کاملSystems of analysis of posterior capsule opacification.
This paper demonstrates the wide variety of systems for the analysis of posterior capsular opacification (PCO). No single system has been proved to be a gold standard and it is difficult to comment on the advantages of one system over another with the limited current knowledge on the effects of PCO on vision. There are few studies that actually compare the different systems of analysis. Researc...
متن کاملRisk factors for posterior capsule opacification.
I mprovements in techniques, instrumentation, and intraocular lens design appear to have been associated with declining rates of posterior capsule opacification following cataract surgery. While morbidity associated with posterior capsule opacification and its treatment, Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy, is limited, progressive opacification affects quality of vision and visual function, while capsulot...
