Priyamvada Yadav, Dr. Suketu Bhapal

Abstract :

Posterior Capsular rupture is the most dreaded complication of cataract surgery that leads to unwanted sequelae.Once it occurs,it can be detected by slit lamp examination but same is not possible in patients with hazy media & with non dilating pupils; in such cases,ultrasound biomicroscopy proves to be of great help. A prospective study was done in which 51 eyes of 51 patients with posterior capsular rent were evaluated using ultrasound biomicroscopy & B scan & various parameters were studied. After posterior capsular rent ,patient is either left aphakic or managed by anterior chamber intraocular lens,sulcus fixation intraocular lens or sclera fixated intraocular lens. Ultrasound biomicroscopy in cases of posterior capsular rupture helps in deciding further line of management.
