Capsule polishing in cataract surgery to prevent posterior capsule opacification
Posterior capsular opacification(PCO)is one of the common complications after phacoe-mulsification.Modem cataract surgery technology has significantly reduced the occurrence of this complica-tion,with the improvement of modem surgical technology and intraocular lens materials,making the rate of YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is declining.Capsular membrane polishing,whether instruments,water flow polishing or negative pressure polishing can effectively remove the fiber stent on the posterior capsule surface and the detached epithelial cells,and can effectively prevent PCO.In patients with adequate anterior and posterior capsule polishing,the incidence of postoperative PCO is usually reduced.(Int Rev Ophthal-mol,2024,48:205-210)
