Long-term follow-up of Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy

American Intra-Ocular Implant Society Journal, 1984
A Nd:YAG laser developed for ophthalmic surgery was studied for safety and efficacy in secondary discission of the posterior capsule in aphakic and pseudophakic subjects. The study involves 6,800 subjects, 526 of whom had completed the six-month postoperative course by the time the data base was closed for analysis. Of the 526 subjects who were treated

Complications of Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy.

Transactions of the ophthalmological societies of the United Kingdom, 1985
A number of ocular complications are seen to be associated with the use of Nd:YAG laser for posterior capsulotomy after cataract surgery. We have outlined possible hazards to the cornea, trabecular meshwork, vitreous and intraocular lenses and have discussed their consequences.

Intraocular Pressure Elevation Following Nd:YAG Laser Posterior Capsulotomy

Ophthalmology, 1985
Intraocular pressures (IOP) and tonographic outflow facilities were measured following neodymium (Nd): YAG laser posterior capsulotomy in 13 pseudophakic and 8 aphakic eyes. Mean intraocular pressure (IOP) peaked by three hours with a mean increase of 13 mmHg, remained elevated by 5 mmHg at 24 hours but returned to baseline by one week.

Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy under general anesthesia in the sitting position

Journal of American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus, 2013
Neodymium-yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) laser capsulotomy is commonly used to treat posterior capsule opacification after cataract surgery in adults. Children and adults with developmental delay, however, are not always cooperative, and the procedure must be performed under general anesthesia.

Suprachoroidal haemorrhage following Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy

Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology, 2005
AbstractNd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is the commonest procedurefor posterior capsule thickening following cataract surgery. Complicationsfollowing this laser surgery are relatively few, and this is ordinarilya safe and effective procedure. Herein a case is described of suprachoroidalhaemorrhage following Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy.

A new contact lens for Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy.

Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie, 1987
We have designed a contact lens that increases the cone angle and decreases the spot size of the Nd:YAG laser beam to facilitate photodisruption of the opacified posterior capsule.

Review of the clinical literature on the use of the Nd:YAG laser for posterior capsulotomy

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1986
An overview of the safety and effectiveness of the Nd:YAG laser for posterior capsulotomy as discussed in the current scientific literature is presented. The results of three clinical investigations in Europe and ten clinical reports in the United States are briefly summarized.

Study of myosis in operation of the Nd:YAG laser anterior capsulotomy

SPIE Proceedings, 1993
In this paper, 30 cases of extracapsular cataract extractions with the assistance of an Nd:YAG laser are reported. Myosis phenomenon in laser operation is observed and its producing mechanism is discussed. Laser ophthalmology was the earliest field in laser application research, and pulse Nd:YAG laser ophthalmic instruments have been developed rapidly ...

Results of Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy in posterior capsule opacification.

Annales Universitatis Mariae Curie-Sklodowska. Sectio D: Medicina, 2003
The most common postoperative complication of cataract extraction is posterior capsule opacification. It causes the deterioration of visual acuity, however, there is no effective method to prevent it. The posterior capsule opacification is treated by surgical or laser capsulotomy.
