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 کاملEstimation of mean ND: Yag laser capsulotomy energy levels for membranous and fibrous posterior capsular opacification.
INTRODUCTION Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is a visually-disabling complication of cataract surgery. OBJECTIVE To estimate energy levels for capsulotomy in various subtypes of PCO (membranous, fibrous and fibro-membranous). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 215 patients with PCO were randomly selected and evaluated for Nd: Yag laser capsulotomy, after a quiet post-operative course of...

متن کاملNd: YAG capsulotomy for posterior capsule opacification after combined clear corneal phacoemulsification and vitrectomy
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) laser capsulotomy for posterior capsule opacification (PCO) following combined phacoemulsification and vitrectomy for the treatment of cataract in association with macular hole (MH) or epiretinal membrane (ERM). METHODS Retrospective clinical study of 34 eyes of 34 patients who underwent combined cataract surgery and vitrec...
متن کاملNd: YAG Laser Posterior Capsulotomy Rates in Myopic Eyes after Implantation of Capsular Tension Ring
BACKGROUND The aim f this study was to evaluate the effect of capsular tension ring implantation during cataract surgery on the incidence of neodymium: YAG (Nd: YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy in myopic (axial length [AL] ≥25.00 mm) eyes. MATERIAL/METHODS In this retrospective study, the records of the cases of 117 myopic patients who underwent cataract surgery between January 2004 and January...
