Sažetak
OBJECTIVE: To compare the incidence and intensity of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) between two intraocular lenses (IOLs) over three years. METHODS: Eighty-three patients underwent cataract surgery with implantation of Acreos Adapt AO or Acrysof SA60AT. PCO values were assessed using a photographic image analysis system (EPCO 2000) and the amount of PCO at the slit lamp. RESULTS: Mean PCO score was 2.78 ± 1.55 for the Acreos Adapt AO and 2.32 ± 1.20 for the Acrysof SA60AT (P=.229). There were no significant differences in the median EPCO values in the entire IOL optics area (0.60 ± 0.26 vs 0.58 ± 0.23 ; P=.745) and in the central 3-mm zone (0.28 ± 0.13 vs 0.27 ± 0.12 ; P=.638). Neodymium:YAG capsulotomy was performed in 28% of eyes with Acreos Adapt AO and 23.33% with Acrysof SA60AT (P=.692). CONCLUSION: Both IOLs had comparable PCO and Nd:YAG rates three years postoperatively.
