The optimal size of a posterior capsulotomy
Journal - American Intra-Ocular Implant Society, 1985The optimal posterior capsulotomy diameter should be equal to the normal pupillary diameter in dark conditions to avoid glare and other undesirable optical aberrations. We studied 14 patients whose average pupillary diameter following cataract surgery was approximately 3.9 mm in scotopic conditions.

We studied the rate of primary and secondary capsulotomy in 300 consecutive extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE) patients, followed from one to four years. Overall capsulotomy rate was 14%; the secondary capsulotomy rate was 3%. The incidence of secondary capsulotomy was greatest between 24 and 36 months, and decreased thereafter.

New Technique for Posterior Capsulotomy
European Journal of Implant and Refractive Surgery, 1990Following extracapsular cataract removal opacification of the lens capsule may occur. In some cases of congenital and juvenile cataract, a posterior capsule opacity may be found at the time of operation. A new instrument together with a surgical technique for performing a posterior capsulotomy in aphakic or pseudophakic eyes, are described.

Decentration and Tilt of Intraocular Lens after Posterior Capsulotomy
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2018To assess the effect of posterior capsular opacification (PCO) and Neodymium-doped:Yttrium Aluminium Garnet (Nd:YAG) laser capsulotomy on tilt and decentration of intraocular lens (IOL) at vertical and horizontal meridians.The study included 64 eyes of 64 patients.

Neodymium:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy results and complications
Journal - American Intra-Ocular Implant Society, 1985I have reviewed 210 cases of Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy. The results indicate that although the procedure is extremely safe, complications can occur, at least one of which is severe.

Neodymium:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy
American Intra-Ocular Implant Society Journal, 1985Posterior capsule opacification, caused by pearl formation or fibrosis, occurs commonly following cataract surgery. This paper presents results of a study of 367 Nd:YAG laser posterior capsulotomies and discusses both risks and benefits. Specific attention has been given to intraocular pressure (IOP), corneal endothelial cell integrity, and visual ...

Primary Posterior Laser-Assisted Capsulotomy
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2014PURPOSE: To describe new techniques for performing primary posterior laser-assisted capsulotomy (PLC) to prevent posterior capsule opacification after cataract surgery. METHODS: After lens and cortex removal, three different techniques

Neodymium-Yag Laser for Posterior Capsulotomy
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1983We used the neodymium-YAG laser to perform discission of the posterior capsule in 49 eyes of 47 patients who had undergone previous extracapsular cataract extraction. The visual results were encouraging, with an improvement in visual acuity of one or more Snellen lines in 45 eyes and an improvement of three or more Snellen lines in 33 eyes.
