| description | Objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of different techniques of neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy.
Study Design: Quasi-experimental study.
Place and Duration of Study: Combined Military Hospital Nowshera, from Aug 2015 to Mar 2017.
Methodology: A total of 120 patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria were allocated to three groups. Group-A (Circular-group, CG) patients were subjected to circular pattern capsulotomy, group-B (Hinged-group, HG) patients underwent hinged pattern capsulotomy and group-C (Modified-group, MG) had a circular pattern of Nd: YAG posterior capsulotomy along with vitreous strand cutting (modified round pattern). Primary outcome measures were the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP) and annoying floaters at three-months follow up visits.
Results: The mean age of patients was 52.27 ± 5.65 years and there were 64 (53.3%) males and 56 (46.7%) females. The bestcorrected visual acuity improved significantly (p |

Results: The mean age of patients was 52.27 ± 5.65 years and there were 64 (53.3%) males and 56 (46.7%) females. The bestcorrected visual acuity improved significantly (p<0.001) in the modified round pattern group compared to the other two groups at two weeks post-capsulotomy. Intraocular pressure remained unchanged among the three groups. Significantly fewer patients in the modified treatment-group experienced annoying floaters as compared to hinged and circular treatment groups [3 (7.5%) vs 9 (22.5%) vs 12 (30.0%) respectively, p=0.038].
Conclusion: Modified round pattern Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is a safe and effective method for treating posterior capsular opacification.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0030-9648</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2411-8842</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.51253/pafmj.v72i1.3697</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Rawalpindi: Knowledge Bylanes</publisher><subject>Analysis ; Care and treatment ; Cataract ; Cataracts ; Eye surgery ; Lasers ; Magnetic alloys ; Methods ; Rare earth metals ; Surgery</subject><ispartof>Pakistan Armed Forces medical journal, 2022-02, Vol.72 (1), p.164-68</ispartof><rights>COPYRIGHT 2022 Knowledge Bylanes</rights><rights>(c)2022 Pakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><link.rule.ids>314,780,784,864,27924,27925</link.rule.ids></links><search><creatorcontrib>Parveen, Shagufta</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Naeem, Saquib</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Hanif, Kashif</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Akbar, Bushra</creatorcontrib><title>Comparison of Nd: YAG (Neodymium-Doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) Laser Posterior Capsulotomy Techniques in The Treatment of Posterior Capsular Opacification</title><title>Pakistan Armed Forces medical journal</title><description>Objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of different techniques of neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd: YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy.
