Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study what to evaluate if axial myopia might influence the development of PCO.

Detailed Description

We sought to prospectively compare PCO in eyes with myopia in relation to axial length with PCO in eyes with normal axial length, to decipher the role of axial myopia in PCO 4 years after surgery for senile cataract.
