متن کاملProliferation of lens epithelial remnants after Nd-YAG laser capsulotomy.
Eight eyes exhibited massive proliferation of lens epithelial remnants following Nd-YAG posterior capsulotomy. All eyes had pre-existing retinal pathology. Six had undergone vitrectomy (four for proliferative diabetic retinopathy) before extracapsular cataract extraction with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation. The other two eyes had familial exudative vitreoretinopathy or retinopa...
