Objective: To determine if an intraocular lens (IOL) with a high A constant reduced the incidence of retinal detachment following YAG laser capsulotomy. Study Design: Patients had to have a minimum of 1 year follow-up following a YAG capsulotomy. This is a retrospective analysis of a ...
YAG laser capsulotomy is commonly performed in clinical practice but epidemiology data is somewhat lacking regarding the procedure’s complications. To help, researchers recently estimated the incidence and assessed the risk factors associated with three adverse events of interest after YAG capsulotomy: ocu...
The Role of Early Nd:YAG Laser Capsulotomy in Improving Visual Performance in Mild to Moderately Symptomatic Trifocal Patients to moderately dissatisfied trifocal IOL patients may be beneficial in improving CS, visual quality, and reducing the presence and severity of dysphotopsias...

Posterior capsular opacification may present months or years after cataract surgery and require YAG laser capsulotomy.Click image to enlarge. If a patient had significant corneal astigmatism, they may have received a toric intraocular lens (IOL). Toric IOLs have a small risk of rotation after the ...

Purpose: To compare the efficacy of 0.5% and 1.0% apraclonidine in preventing laser-induced intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation after trabeculoplasty, neodymium: YAG (Nd:YAG) iridotomy, and capsulotomy. Methods: This is a prospective... Lisa F. Rosenberg,Theodore Krupin,Jon Ruderman,... - ...
Effect of neodymium:YAG laser on sodium hyaluronate in vitro as a model for postcapsulotomy intraocular pressure changeduodenumvillous adenomaConclusions: Neodymium:YAG laser energy has a pronounced effect on sodium hyaluronate that exceeds the thermal effect seen with BSS when the pressure is monitored...
Qualification criteria for YAG laser capsulotomy closely follows those for cataract surgery itself: most patients should have a best-corrected visual acuity of 20/40 or worse via refraction...Nathan Lighthizer
