NEODYMIUM: YTTRIUM - ALUMINIUM - GARNET (Nd: YAG) LASER POSTERIOR CAPSULOTOMY IN POSTERIOR CAPSULAR OPACIFICATION
Dr. Keerthi Sri. A. S
Abstract :
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is a common complication following cataract surgery. When “PCO” evolves following cataract surgery, it leads to symptoms like blurring of vision and glare. At present, the most widely practiced procedure for the management of symptomatic “Posterior capsular opacification” is Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy.In this study an attempt has been made to evaluate the outcome following Nd–YAG laser capsulotomy. Aim of the study is to assess the correlation between PCO and visual acuity before and after Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulatomy,to assess the results of Nd–YAG LASER posterior capsulatomy,to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the above procedure. A good improvement in the visual acuity was seen in most of the patients after the Nd:YAG laser procedure in this study and Nd:YAG laser is a safe and effective procedure.
