Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the changes in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), central corneal thickness (CCT), and spherical equivalent (SE) before and after Nd: YAG laser capsulotomy. Materials and Methods: This study included 68 patients (40 men, 28 women) who had posterior capsule opacification. The subjects underwent Nd: YAG laser capsulotomy with a minimal energy and shooting number. BCVA, IOP, CCT, and SE were measured before and 1 week, 1 and 3 months after laser capsulotomy. The post-treatment measurements were compared with the pre-treatment ones statistically. Results: There were statistically significant differences between pre- and post-laser BCVA values at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months (p0.05). There were statistically significant differences between pre- and post-laser SE values at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months (p

Özet

Amaç: Neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) lazer kapsülotomi öncesi ve sonrasında görme keskinliği, göz içi basıncı (GİB), santral kornea kalınlığı (SKK) ve sferik ekivalan (SE) değişimlerinin değerlendirilmesi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Arka kapsül kesafeti bulunan 68 (40 erkek, 28 kadın) hastanın 68 gözü çalışmaya dahil edildi. Gereken en az enerji ve şut sayısıyla Nd: YAG lazer kapsülotomi uygulandı. İşlem öncesi ve sonrasında birinci hafta, birinci ay ve üçüncü ay tüm hastalara en iyi düzeltilmiş görme keskinliği (EDGK), SE, GİB ve SKK ölçümleri yapıldı. Veriler istatistiksel olarak analiz edildi. Bulgular: Lazer sonrası görme keskinliklerinde lazer öncesine göre artış gözlendi. Lazer öncesi ve lazer kapsülotominin birinci ay ve üçüncü ay sonrası sonuçlar arasında anlamlı bir artış mevcuttu (p0,05). Lazer öncesi ortalama SE değerlerinde lazer sonrasına göre hipermetropik yöne kayma izlendi. Lazer öncesi ve lazer kapsülotominin birinci hafta, birinci ay ve üçüncü ay sonrası sonuçlar arasında anlamlı bir artış mevcuttu (p
