A Comparision of Posterior Capsular Opacity Formation Upto 1 Year in Patients With Small Incision Cataract Surgery With Foldable Intraocular Lens and Phacoemulsification With the Same Intraocular Lens
Abstract:Introduction: Cataract is most common cause of curable blindness worldwide and cataract surgery is most common procedure performed in ophthalmology. Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is most common complication after cataract surgery which is usually treated with Neodymium-doped: Yttrium Garnet (Nd:YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy or occasionally with a surgical capsulotomy. The incidence and severity of PCO correlates to the type of surgical technique, IOL optic edge designs and IOL materials.
