Abstract
Aim of the study was to find out the visual outcome and complications following Nd YAG laser capsulotomy in postoperative posterior capsular opacification. Materials and Methods: consist of a prospective study including 100 eyes having postoperative Posterior Capsular Opacification (PCO), attending the Ophthalmology outpatient department of a Medical College in Bengaluru during January 2021 to June 2022. A complete physical and ophthalmological examination was carried out. After taking informed consent, patients underwent Nd YAG laser capsulotomy. Post-operative follow-up was done and observed for any complications till 6 weeks. Conclusion: Nd YAG laser capsulotomy is an effective, relatively safe and economical in the management of posterior capsular opacity. To minimise the complications, minimum energy combined with precisely focused shots of Nd YAG laser is needed for having a desired opening in the posterior opacified capsule. Keywords: Postoperative Posterior Capsular Opacification, Nd YAG Laser capsulotomy.
