An Overview of Nd:YAG Laser Capsulotomy
It has been revealed that posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is the most common delayed complication of cataract surgery. On the other hand, Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy is accepted as standard treatment for PCO. Although, Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy is a noninvasive and safe treatment it carries risk of some complications. Using less total energy and performing smaller capsulotomies are effective ...

682 infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Though all these lasers would have some effect on melanin, three wavelength bands are most useful for treating pigmented lesions green, red, and infrared.[1] Its not only about the wavelength, it is more about the right pulse duration and at sufficient fluence. Since green and blue light lasers are long pulsed continuous waves, they cause a ...

متن کاملDefining the ideal femtosecond laser capsulotomy
PURPOSE We define the ideal anterior capsulotomy through consideration of capsular histology and biomechanics. Desirable qualities include preventing posterior capsular opacification (PCO), maintaining effective lens position (ELP) and optimising capsular strength. METHODS Laboratory study of capsular biomechanics and literature review of histology and published clinical results. RESULTS Pa...
متن کاملA New Approach to Laser Capsulotomy
Creation of consistently sized, centrally located, circular capsulotomies has long been the goal of the cataract surgeon. It has been believed that such capsular openings minimize changes in effective lens position after cataract surgery. Manual techniques, even in the best hands and utilizing mechanical or optical devices, are unable to guarantee this. The advent of the femtosecond laser, for ...
