The effect of posterior capsulotomy size on refraction and anterior chamber parameters following Nd:YAG laser treatment

To investigate the effect of capsulotomy size on refraction and anterior chamber parameters following Nd:YAG laser treatment. Fifty-six eyes of 56 pseudophakic patients with posterior capsular opacification (PCO) were reviewed. Patients were divided into two groups according to the capsulotomy size....
