简要总结
This study collects intra- and postoperative data from the patients´charts retrospectively and evaluates retro- and prospectively the rate of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) following implantation of the intraocular lens L 313.
详细描述
This study is a postmarket study without interventions. Within the Standard Care Cataract surgery the participants have been implanted with the intraocular lens L313 in the period between September 2009 and December 2013. As criterium for the PCO was considered the Nd:YAG capsulotomy.
In the first step of the study, data was collected from the patients´charts.
In the second phase, a questionaire was sent to the patients with no recent examination, asking them to answer whether or not participants received a laser procedure due to PCO. In doubt the participants could answer: "I am not certain". For this step the investigator ensured the positive Votum of the Ethic Committee of the University of Greifswald, Germany.
On the third step of the study, the patients that were not certain of having such a laser procedure or did not answer per post, will be contacted on telephone. By uncertainty or no answer on the telephone the family eye doctor will be contacted to receive the necessary information. If the eye doctor has lost contact to the patient, then this patient will be documented as lost-to-follow-up.
Excluded were the patients that live >50km from the Department of Ophthalmology in Neubrandenburg, as well as patients with intraoperative capsule tear.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Eyes With Posterior Capsule Opacification Following Implantation of IOL 313 up to 8 Years
时间窗: up to 8 years
In order to find out whether patients with cataract surgery are affected by lens opacification, we assessed whether a Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy was performed for treatment. For this purpose, the patient files were spotted first. Those who had no recent findings were asked in writing if and when a laser treatment was performed. In the absence of feedback and in case of uncertain or unusable written answer, a telephone consultation with the patient was made. If sufficient information was not available afterwards, the ophthalmologist was asked for information (by phone, by written request or by collecting the data on site in the practices).
次要结局
- Correlation Coefficient Between Capsulotomy Rate and Parameters(up to 8 years)
