Preoperative neodymium:YAG anterior capsulotomy in intumescent cataract: preventing extension of the capsular tear to the lens periphery.

Josephine C Richards1, Dale C Harrison.   

Abstract

Extension of the capsulotomy into the periphery is a well-known complication of cataract surgery in young patients with intumescent cataracts. We report such a case successfully treated preoperatively with a neodymium:YAG laser anterior capsulotomy.
