Mitomycin against posterior capsular opacification: an experimental study in rabbits.
AIMS/BACKGROUND Posterior capsular opacification is the most common postoperative complication of extracapsular cataract surgery. The purpose of this study was to attempt to inhibit this secondary cataract formation by using mitomycin (an antimitotic drug). METHODS A solution containing mitomycin was used to perform hydrodissection (with a 5 minute pause) during extracapsular lens extraction ...
متن کامل[Posterior capsule opacification, capsular bag distension syndrome, and anterior capsular phimosis: A retrospective cohort study].
OBJECTIVE To determine the incidence and the risk factors involved in the development of the three main postoperative capsular complications: posterior capsule opacification (PCO), capsular bag distension syndrome (CBDS), and anterior capsular phimosis syndrome (ACP). SUBJECTS, MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 801 patients submitted to cataract surgery in the...
متن کاملRefractive 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 کاملCurrent improvements in interpretation of posterior capsular opacification images
We present application of curvature-driven min/max flow and anisotropic diffusion in processing posterior capsular (PCO) images. PCO images present the back surface of the lens implanted during cataract surgery and are used to monitor the state of patient vision. Our standard segmentation technique which based on variance based co-occurrence matrices often requires an enhancement of variance im...
متن کاملPosterior capsular opacification and intraocular lens surface micro-roughness characteristics: an atomic force microscopy study.
OBJECTIVE Surface roughness parameters of various intraocular lenses (IOLs) biomaterials using atomic force microscopy (AFM) are compared. Variation, if any, in the micro-roughness properties of different IOLs made up of the same biomaterial is also explored. Retrospective analysis of posterior capsular opacification (PCO) incidence has been followed up for a period of four years post IOL impla...
