“…At present, in addition to the optimization of IOL shape and development of novel IOL materials, IOL surface modification, which is easy to prepare and does not require extra intraocular surgery also contributes to PCO prevention [ 6 , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] ]. In previous studies, researchers mainly focused on hydrophilic coating on the IOL surface to prevent the adhesion of LECs [ [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] ]. However, recent studies have shown that hydrophilic coating can only initially reduce LECs adhesion and proliferation on the surface but do not inhibit PCO in the long term [ 23 ].…”
