Secondary Cataract, YAG-Laser Capsulotomy | |
After extra-capsular cataract extraction (ECCE) and implantation of a posterior chamber lens, the posterior lens capsule opacified centrally due to growth of remaining metaplastic lens cells. These also contracted causing multiple radiating folds of the capsule. Tiny bubbles and debris of the capsule are visible as a sign of the very recent YAG-laser procedure to create a clear central opening. | |
