pubmed:abstractText |
We have previously shown that patients who have a capsulorrhexis larger than the diameter of a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) intraocular lens (IOL) rapidly develop increased posterior capsule opacification (PCO), in effect, producing an example of enhanced PCO. This study focuses on the influence of AcrySof IOLs on this process.
