28-43% of the patients develop posterior capsular thickening after extra capsular cataract surgery. Nd-YAG laser capsulatomy is a method of choice to treat this complication.We conducted a prospective clinical, randomized comparative study to evaluate the post YAG laser IOP rise in 54 patients at Ayub Teaching Hospital Complex.There were 43% male and 57% female patients with a mean age of 63.6 years. The mean time for capsular opacification was 14.6 months. Postoperative visual improvement was 6/24 to 6/6. All patients showed post laser IOP rise that was controlled by Topical Beta-blockers and steroids effectively. |
