Zusammenfassung

To date prevention of PCO relies mainly on capsular bending and square edges of the IOLs haptics and optics. To avoid anterior capsule fibrosis related complications, posterior capsule folds, and to keep the whole capsular bag transparent new concepts of implantation are necessary. This becomes increasingly important with new IOL functionalities such as multifocality, prolate periphery, and pseudoaccomodation. Combining a circular haptics implantation with a sharp edge IOL has achieved anterior capsule transparence, PCO prevention, without contact of the anterior capsule to the IOL optic. Experimental evidence a…
