[Secondary cataract; correlations concerning lens surgery and pseudophakia type. Therapeutic aspects].
The study presents the correlations concerning the advent of the secondary cataract depending on the surgical technique and pseudofak type (PMMA, acrylic, siliconic), as well the safety and efficacy of the YAG: Nd capsulotomy. A 3 years clinical retrospective trial was done on 320 eyes operated for senile cataract. The incidence of the secondary cataract was 11.4%, usually after 12 months, (the lower in phacoemulsification using acrylic IOL). Nd: YAG capsulotomy being done in cases with visual acuity lower than 0.6.
