Experimental models for posterior capsule opacification research

, 2016
Millions of people worldwide are blinded due to cataract formation. At present the only means of treating a cataract is through surgical intervention. A modern cataract operation involves the creation of an opening in the anterior lens capsule to allow ...

Posterior capsule opacification in mice

, 2005
Objective: To present a new model of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) in mice. Methods: An extracapsular lens extraction was performed in 28 consecutive mice. Animals were humanely killed 0 and 24 hours and 3 and 14 days after surgery.

Primary posterior optic buttonholing as a new standard-of-care: rationale, technique, advantages, and special indications

Frontiers in Ophthalmology
IntroductionPosterior capsule opacification (PCO) is still frequent in spite of sharp-edged optic IOLs. With primary posterior capsulorhexis (PPCCC), lens epithelial cells (LECs) may still access the central posterior optic surface.

The efficacy of an acrylic intraocular lens surface modified with polyethylene glycol in posterior capsular opacification [PDF]

, 2007
To investigate if the surface modification of intraocular lens (IOL) is efficient in the prevention of posterior capsular opacification (PCO), the acrylic surface of intraocular lens (Acrysof) was polymerized with polyethylene glycol (PEG-IOL). The human
