Anterior capsule contraction syndrome after phacoemulsification is rare and can compromise visual acuity. Nd:Yag laser capsulotomy is a good alternative in limited forms of contraction.We report four cases of anterior capsule contraction syndrome developed after a mean follow-up of 8 months after phacoemulsification and acrylic intraocular lens implantation. Nd:Yag laser capsulotomy was performed to help resolve the contraction and its symptoms. No relapses occurred during the follow-up.Nd:Yag laser capsulotomy is effective and safe in managing limited forms of anterior capsule contraction syndrome after phacoemulsification. Surgery is an alternative to Nd:Yag capsulotomy in severe cases. |
