Intraocular Pressure Spikes following Neodymium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet Laser Capsulotomy: Current Prevalence and Management in Israel

AIM The current treatment for posterior capsular opacification (PCO), neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser capsulotomy, may lead to increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Our aim was to survey routines in the management of IOP spikes and to identify the rate of IOP spikes following prophylactic apraclonidine treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS A survey questionnaire among ophtha...

Long-term effect of Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy on intraocular pressure.

OBJECTIVE To study the long-term effect of Nd:YAG capsulotomy on intraocular pressure (IOP). METHODS We reviewed the records of patients with bilateral pseudophakia who received Nd:YAG capsulotomy in only 1 eye. Using the Wilcoxon rank sum test, we compared the mean change in IOP in eyes before and after capsulotomy with that of the noncapsulotomy eyes at corresponding time intervals. Using m...
