Post-Operative Capsular Opacification: A Review
Post-operative capsular opacification is a multifactorial physiological consequence of cataract surgery. Opacification involving the central posterior capsule has a significant impact on high and low contrast acuity and low contrast sensitivity. The assessment of Posterior Capsule Opacification (PCO) on cadaver eyes, experimental studies, culture models and in clinical studies has provided an u...
متن کاملMitomycin 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 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: a problem reduced but not yet eradicated.
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most frequent complication of cataract surgery. Advances in surgical techniques, intraocular lens materials, and designs have reduced the PCO rate, but it is still a significant problem. The only effective treatment for PCO, Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy carries vision-related complications and risks and puts a significant financial burden on the health ...
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...
