| Summary: |
In postoperative period
after cataract extraction with phacoemulsification,
posterior capsule can be transparent or the
opacifications can occur. The first clinical
classification of the posterior capsule opacifications
is Ostbauma’s classification. „Plaque” is a sediment (plate)
on the posterior capsule surface present already during
cataract surgery. The most common clinical
classification of the posterior capsule opacificaion
comprises regeneratory and fibrous forms. The different
morphological categories occur in regeneratory type i.e.
pearls, plates, „holes in cheese”, islands and stamps.
Till now, there is no univocal classification of the PCO
morphological forms. |
