Automate Pre-Screening System of Posterior Capsular Opacification (PCO)

2020 17th International Conference on Electrical Engineering/Electronics, Computer, Telecommunications and Information Technology (ECTI-CON), 2020
Posterior Capsular Opacification (PCO) i s a complication that occurs after cataract surgery from residual cells accumulating on the intraocular lens (IOL). Existing systems of classification m ainly c lassify P CO a ccording t o t heir severity, which is not useful for the ophthalmologist. In this paper, we are proposing a pre-screening system for PCO

Investigating the role of α5β1-integrin in fibrotic posterior capsular opacification (PCO)

, 2021
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is a major complication of cataract surgery. The lens epithelial cells remaining behind post cataract surgery undergo epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) and transform into myofibroblasts. The migration of fibroblasts to the posterior capsule blocks the visual axis resulting in the secondary cataract, PCO.

Prevention of posterior capsular opacification

Experimental Eye Research, 2015
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is a common complication of cataract surgery. The development of PCO is due to a combination of the processes of proliferation, migration, and transdifferentiation of residual lens epithelial cells (LECs) on the ...

Gremlin is a potential target for posterior capsular opacification

Cell Cycle, 2019
Objective: The present study was conducted to determine the role of gremlin during the development of posterior capsular opacification (PCO) via in vitro and in vivo experiments. Methods: The activation, roles and relationships of the BMPs/Smad1/5, MAPK,

Drug-eluting intraocular lens with sustained bromfenac release for conquering posterior capsular opacification

Bioactive Materials, 2022
Cataract is the leading cause of visual impairment, and posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most common long-term complication of modern cataract surgery, which can cause severe visual impairment after surgery. The proliferation, migration, and

Cataract surgeon viewpoints on the need for novel preventative anti-inflammatory and anti-posterior capsular opacification therapies

Current Medical Research and Opinion, 2019
Purpose: To determine cataract surgeon viewpoints on the efficacy of available therapies/preventatives for two common sequelae of cataract surgery: inflammation and posterior capsular opacification (PCO).

Lens Epithelium and Posterior Capsular Opacification: Prevention of PCO with the Bag-in-the-Lens (BIL)

2014
The bag-in-the-lens (BIL) cataract surgery technique is a unique approach to prevent posterior capsular opacification. Insertion of the lens requires a primary posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis. The lens is positioned entirely suspended by the anterior and posterior capsules.

GM3 Interacts with TGFβRs in the Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) During Posterior Capsular Opacification (PCO) Formation

2020
Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a scheduled programing and differentiating transition from epithelial phenotype to mesenchymal phenotype. The EMT event is, therefore, the programmed cellular process for differentiation transition from epithelial to mesenchymal type cells.
