Neodymium:YAG Laser Peripheral Iridotomy: Cause of a Visually Incapacitating Cataract?
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2006<P>Neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) laser peripheral iridotomy is the procedure of choice to treat and avoid further episodes of angle-closure glaucoma. A patient who developed a visually incapacitating posterior subcapsular lens opacity shortly after Nd:YAG laser peripheral iridotomy is described. The patient underwent cataract surgery and achieved a good
