Abstract:

Cataract, as one of the major blinding diseases in China, is an opacification of the transparent crystalline lens. The appearance of phacoemulsification has brought good news to the patients, but there are still some complications. One of the most important is posterior cataract, which is also an important cause of postoperative low vision. In recent years, with the deepening of research, the understanding of risk factors has become more comprehensive, more and more preventive measures for posterior capsular opacification have been taken. Surgical techniques, intraocular lens (IOL) optic edge designs, IOL materials and the application of related drugs tend to be diversified and more effective. In this paper, risk factors and prevention of posterior capsular opacification after phacoemulsification were reviewed in order to provide reference for clinical work and scientific research.

Key words: Posterior capsular opacification, Risk factors, Intraocular lens, Prevention
