Ultrasound anterior capsule cleaning was performed in 22 intercapsular cataract extraction cases. These eyes were compared with 24 others which had the intercapsular procedure performed by the same surgeon without ultrasound capsule cleaning. Eyes were randomly assigned to one procedure from a group of 62 cataract patients. Histologic specimens of the anterior capsule flap removed from the optical zone at the end of the procedure were examined. The anterior capsules cleaned by ultrasound appeared more transparent, without residual lens fibers with fewer epithelial cells. Ultrasound cleaning seems effective in preventing anterior capsular fibrosis and opacification.
