چکیده

Capsular outcomes of anterior/posterior capsulorhexis opening (ACO/PCO) are essential for performing a secondary in-the-bag intraocular lens implantation. To compare the capsular outcomes with different primary capsulorhexis sizes, Thirty-eight eligible patients (45 eyes) were randomly assigned to three groups by anterior capsulorhexis diameter (Group A: 3.0-3.9, Group B: 4.0-5.0, and Group C: 5.1-6.0 mm). The areas of ACO/PCO and posterior capsule opening opacity (PCOO) as primary outcomes, while, the incidence of visual axis opacity (VAO) as secondary outcome were measured at follow-up visits. Among the thirty eyes included in the final analysis, the mean area of the ACO decreased significantly, whereas the PCO enlarged with time. Group A had the highest anterior capsule constriction and percentage reduction, which increased with time. There were significant differences in the percentage reductions at 6 months and 1 year compared to 1 month in Group A and B. Group C had the highest posterior capsule enlargement. The percentage of PCOO to PCO area and the incidence of VAO was highest in Group A and lowest in Group C. Thus, Capsulorhexis diameter of 4.0-5.0 mm may yield better capsular outcomes, considering moderate contraction of ACO, moderate enlargement of PCO, and lower percentage of PCOO and VAO.

Intraocular Lens Optic Capture in Pediatric Cataract Surgery

Posterior capsulorhexis with optic capture was originally described by Gimbel and DeBroff [4] to maintain a clear visual axis after pediatric cataract surgery. This technique involves capturing the IOL optic through a primary posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (PCCC), while the haptics remain within the capsular bag (Figure 1). Studies have demonstrated this to be a valuable techniq...
