ABSTRACT
Abstract Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Nd: YAG laser capsulotomy on refraction, central macular thickness (CMT) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness. Methods: 42 eyes of 42 patients who treated with Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy were included in thisprospective study. Spherical equivalent (SE), cyclindrical power refraction, CMT and RNFL thickness were evaluated preoperatively and at postoperative first day, first week and postoperative first month. Results: Spherical equivalent values and central macular thickness values did not significantly change in the first month after treatment. Average and nasal retinal nerve fiber layer thickness values significantly increase and cyclindrical power refraction significantly decreased during the visits. Conclusion: Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy is confident and reliable treatment option of the posterior capsula opacification (PCO). After Nd: yag laser capsulotomy cyclindrical power refraction and RNFL thickness values significantly change.
RESUMO
Resumo Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo é examinar o efeito da capsulotomia de laser Nd: YAG na refração, espessura macular central (CMT) e espessura da camada de fibra nervosa retiniana (RNFL). Métodos: 42 olhos de 42 pacientes que trataram com capsulotomia laser Nd: YAG foram incluídos neste estudo prospectivo. O equivalente esférico (SE), a refração de potência cíclica, a espessura CMT e RNFL foram avaliados pré-operatório e no primeiro dia pós-operatório, primeira semana e primeiro mês pós-operatório. Resultados: valores equivalentes esféricos e valores de espessura macular central não alteraram significativamente no primeiro mês após o tratamento. Os valores médios e da espessura da camada de fibra nervosa nasal da retina aumentaram significativamente e a refração do poder cíclico diminuiu significativamente durante as visitas. Conclusão: Nd: a capsulotomia laser YAG é uma opção de tratamento confiante e confiável da opacificação da cápsula posterior (PCO). Após Nd: a capsulotomia do laser YAG, a refração do poder cíclico e os valores da espessura do RNFL mudam significativamente.
