Summary

This is a two-arm, parallel group, open-label, randomized controlled trial to compare the visual acuity, visual quality, operative complications and the satisfaction of patients between primary posterior capsulorhexis group and laser capsulotomy group of cataract patients combined with primary posterior capsular opacification (PPCO).

Conditions

  • Cataract
  • Posterior Capsule Opacification

Interventions

PROCEDURE

posterior capsulotomy

After phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation, primary posterior capsulotomy will be performed to remove the primary posterior capsule opacification after posterior capsule polishing. A limited anterior vitrectomy will be performed if the anterior hyaloid surface is broken.

PROCEDURE

laser capsulotomy

A routine phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation is performed. Then the Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy will be performed 1 month postoperative to remove the primary posterior capsule opacification.
