One of the most common cause decrease vision in a pseudophakic patient is formation posterior capsular opacification (PCO) which affected by several factors like design implanted intraocular lens (IOL) and material IOL. PCO incidence has been reported to be 20.7% at 2 years & 28.5% 5 years. Decrease because necessitates capsulotomy with neodymium yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd-YAG) laser create sm...

BACKGROUND 28-43% of the patients develop posterior capsular thickening after extra capsular cataract surgery. Nd-YAG laser capsulatomy is a method of choice to treat this complication. METHOD We conducted a prospective clinical, randomized comparative study to evaluate the post YAG laser IOP rise in 54 patients at Ayub Teaching Hospital Complex. RESULT There were 43% male and 57% female pa...

BACKGROUND Posterior capsule opacification is one of the most frequent adverse events following cataract surgery. This manuscript reports the lifetime cost of complications linked to posterior capsule opacification using three types of intraocular lens with square edges. METHODS Costs were estimated from a retrospective study of patients who underwent cataract surgery and data from the litera...
