Recurrent posterior capsule opacification in an adult

Abstract

A 59-year-old male presented with diminished vision in the right eye (OD) after undergoing cataract surgery 4 years back. One year later, he developed posterior capsular opacification, for which laser capsulotomy was done. He had good vision since then. His vision deteriorated again for the last 6 months. On examination, OD showed opacification of posterior capsule within the area of laser capsulotomy. A repeat laser capsulotomy was done in OD. Vision was 6/6 (OD) on the follow-up 2 weeks later.
