Clarity Restored: Exploring Posterior Capsulotomy

Posterior capsulotomy is a specialized surgical procedure primarily used to address posterior capsule opacification (PCO) after cataract surgery. By creating a precise opening in the cloudy posterior lens capsule, this technique aims to restore clear vision for patients experiencing visual disturbances. Understanding the indications, benefits, and potential risks associated with posterior capsulotomy is crucial for both patients and ophthalmologists, ensuring informed decision-making and optimal visual outcomes following cataract surgery.
