Refractive Error and Anterior Segment Parametric Changes in Patients with Posterior Capsular Opacification after Nd: YAG Laser Posterior Capsulotomy
Background and Objective: Cataract is one of the most common causes of blindness in the world, and posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most common complication after cataract surgery. Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is a standard method for the treatment of PCO. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Yas laser capsulotomy on anterior segment parameters and lenticu...
متن کاملEvaluation of polyurethane composite shields effect on reducing the risk of cataract induction at head CT scan
Head computed tomography is a common diagnostic examination, which may cause lenticular opacity and cataracts. Cataract induction is one of the non-stochastic effects of radiation, that happens at threshold dose of 0.5 Gy. Recent studies illustrate that only irradiation to the sensitive (germinative) zone of the lens is a prerequisite to cataract development. Recently, the dose values absorbed ...
متن کاملE2012-induced cataract and its predictive biomarkers.
E2012, a gamma secretase modulator without affecting Notch processing, aimed at Alzheimer's disease by reduction of amyloid β-42, induced cataract following repeated doses in the rat. Cataract appeared first at week 10-11 of treatment as a posterior subcapsular area with granular/punctate opaque or shiny dots along the suture line, characterized histologically as lenticular fiber degeneration, ...
متن کاملAbnormal serum lipoprotein levels as a risk factor for the development of human lenticular opacities.
AIM To determine whether an association exists between the different plasma lipoprotein constituents and the prevalence of lenticular opacities in dyslipidaemic subjects. METHODS Adult patients (n = 115) of both genders were included if their fasting total serum cholesterol concentrations exceeded the 95th percentile of normal or their serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL): high-density lipopro...
متن کاملCataract development in a young patient with lathosterolosis: a clinicopathologic case report.
PURPOSE To report a unique case of cataract in a young patient with lathosterolosis, a singular defect of cholesterol biosynthesis, and to report the clinical results and histopathologic findings after cataract surgery. METHODS A 7-year-old patient with lathosterolosis, a rare defect of cholesterol biosynthesis, presented with a complex phenotype, including severe mental retardation, liver di...
