Phacoemulsification of posterior polar cataracts

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2019
Posterior polar cataracts present a unique challenge for the cataract surgeon. This review describes the steps a surgeon can take to overcome these challenges for the successful phacoemulsification of the posterior polar cataract. Proper preoperative examination and diagnostics will allow appropriate preoperative counseling and surgical planning to ...

Bimanual microphaco for posterior polar cataracts

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2006
We describe a technique in which bimanual microphacoemulsification technique through 2, 1.4 mm incisions is performed for posterior polar cataract extraction. The low-infusion and low-vacuum system provides good anterior chamber stability and followability.

Approach to a spontaneously ruptured posterior polar cataract

Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery, 2023
A 61-year-old man presented with gradual blurring of vision and glare in both eyes for a couple of years, with worsening of the vision in his right eye over the past 2 months. He had no medical history of note. On clinical examination, his visual acuities were 20/80 in the right eye and 20/30 in the left eye, uncorrected. The cornea was clear,

Spontaneous dislocation of posterior polar cataract

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2007
We report an unusual case of unilateral spontaneous lens dislocation in a 52-year-old woman with a posterior polar cataract. We postulate that the increasing lens size secondary to nuclear sclerosis may have exerted pressure on a thinned posterior capsule, causing the capsule to rupture spontaneously.

Posterior Polar Developmental Cataract

2016
Posterior polar cataract is a large disc-shaped opacity resulting from persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous progress to degeneration of posterior subcapsular cortex and opacification. Mittendolf dot which is a remnant of a hyaloid vessel, on the posterior surface of the lens does not cause visual disturbance, however, can present thin lens capsular

Management of the hard posterior polar cataract

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2007
I describe a technique for managing the posterior polar cataract with a dense nucleus by initially sculpting a central trough to the depth of the polar opacity. The nucleus is partially cracked in the periphery, avoiding the polar opacity, and then chopped into quadrants without rotating.

Femtodelineation to enhance safety in posterior polar cataracts

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2015
We describe the technique of femtodelineation for posterior polar cataracts. In this technique, the femtosecond laser is used with a cylindrical pattern of lens division to create multiple cylinders within the lens, which results in sharply demarcated layers.
