Chen L, Zhong Y, Yao K, Fu Q. Effect of intraocular lens material and haptic design on anterior capsule contraction after cataract surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2024; 262:1421-1432. [PMID: 37831171 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-023-06230-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare anterior capsule contraction (ACC) after cataract surgery with implantation of intraocular lens (IOLs) of different materials and designs. METHODS We searched three electronic databases for relevant studies published up to January 1, 2023. Five randomized controlled trails (RCTs) and three cohort studies involving 1,221 eyes were included in quantitative synthesis. We extracted data, assessed their quality independently, and calculated standard mean difference (SMD) using a random-effects model. Six RCTs and one retrospective cohort were included in information summary. RESULTS The contraction of the anterior capsule opening area in the hydrophilic group was larger than that of the hydrophobic group from one month to one year postoperatively (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001, respectively). Specifically, the hydrophilic group showed greater contraction of the anterior capsule opening area at one month postoperatively (Standardized mean difference [SMD] = -0.73, 95% confidence interval [CI] = -0.93 to -0.52), three months (SMD = -1.04, 95% CI = -1.32 to -0.75), six months (SMD = -0.99, 95% CI = -1.24 to -0.74) and one year (SMD = -1.33, 95% CI = -2.50 to -0.16). As of one year postoperatively, the anterior capsular opening area showed a trend of decreasing over time in both groups (P = 0.046 and P = 0.050, respectively). In information summary, three studies indicated no relationship between haptic design and ACC, while the other four studies reported that the number and shape of haptic would affect ACC. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggested that the postoperative ACC after the implantation of hydrophobic IOLs was less than that induced by hydrophilic IOLs. Haptic design may also affect the degree of ACC.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the chronic metabolic noncommunicable diseases that has attained worldwide epidemics. It threatens healthy life around the globe, with mild-to-severe secondary complications and leads to significant illness including nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, and macrovascular abnormalities including peripheral vasculopathy, and ischaemic heart disease. Research into diabetic retinopathy (DR), which affects one-third of persons with diabetes, has made considerable strides in recent years. In addition, it can lead to several anterior segment complications such as glaucoma, cataract, cornea, conjunctiva, lacrimal glands and other ocular surface diseases. Uncontrolled DM also caused gradual damage to corneal nerves and epithelial cells, which raises the likelihood of anterior segment diseases including corneal ulcers, dry eye disease, and chronic epithelial abnormalities. Although DR and other associated ocular complications are well-known, the complexity of its aetiology and diagnosis makes therapeutic intervention challenging. Strict glycaemic control, early detection and regular screening, and meticulous management is the key to halting the progression of the disease. In this review manuscript, we aim to provide an in-depth understanding of the broad spectrum of diabetic complications in the anterior segment of the ocular tissues and illustrate the progression of diabetes and its pathophysiology, epidemiology, and prospective therapeutic targets. This first such review article will highlight the role of diagnosing and treating patients with a plethora of anterior segment diseases associated with diabetes, which are often neglected.

Retrospective study of postoperative intraocular pressure and complications in phacoemulsification combined with endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation and phacoemulsification alone in dogs. J Vet Sci 2023; 24:e16.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term comparative data of phacoemulsification combined with endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation (phaco-ECP) versus phacoemulsification (phaco) alone in dogs are rare. OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of ECP on postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) and complications after phaco in dogs with normal IOP. METHODS Medical records of IOP, conjunctival hyperemia, corneal edema, aqueous flare, posterior synechia, intraocular fibrin, and posterior capsule opacification (PCO) formation in 15 canine eyes that underwent phaco-ECP and 36 eyes that underwent phaco alone were evaluated retrospectively. ECP was applied when either the iridocorneal angle or the ciliary cleft was narrow or closed. RESULTS The IOP of the phaco-ECP group persisted within the normal range postoperatively. The phaco-ECP group had a shorter period of dorzolamide use than did the phaco group. PCO was formed earlier in the phaco-ECP group than in the phaco group. The phaco-ECP group showed more severe corneal edema than the phaco group at every follow-up visit. Posterior synechia was more severe in the phaco-ECP group than in the phaco group from two weeks until the last follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Although ECP might cause more postoperative complications such as corneal edema and posterior synechia, it could effectively reduce the incidence of IOP increase after phaco in dogs with a high risk of postoperative glaucoma.

Diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular oedema pathways and management: UK Consensus Working Group. Eye (Lond) 2021; 34:1-51.

Abstract
The management of diabetic retinopathy (DR) has evolved considerably over the past decade, with the availability of new technologies (diagnostic and therapeutic). As such, the existing Royal College of Ophthalmologists DR Guidelines (2013) are outdated, and to the best of our knowledge are not under revision at present. Furthermore, there are no other UK guidelines covering all available treatments, and there seems to be significant variation around the UK in the management of diabetic macular oedema (DMO). This manuscript provides a summary of reviews the pathogenesis of DR and DMO, including role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and non-VEGF cytokines, clinical grading/classification of DMO vis a vis current terminology (of centre-involving [CI-DMO], or non-centre involving [nCI-DMO], systemic risks and their management). The excellent UK DR Screening (DRS) service has continued to evolve and remains world-leading. However, challenges remain, as there are significant variations in equipment used, and reproducible standards of DMO screening nationally. The interphase between DRS and the hospital eye service can only be strengthened with further improvements. The role of modern technology including optical coherence tomography (OCT) and wide-field imaging, and working practices including virtual clinics and their potential in increasing clinic capacity and improving patient experiences and outcomes are discussed. Similarly, potential roles of home monitoring in diabetic eyes in the future are explored. The role of pharmacological (intravitreal injections [IVT] of anti-VEGFs and steroids) and laser therapies are summarised. Generally, IVT anti-VEGF are offered as first line pharmacologic therapy. As requirements of diabetic patients in particular patient groups may vary, including pregnant women, children, and persons with learning difficulties, it is important that DR management is personalised in such particular patient groups. First choice therapy needs to be individualised in these cases and may be intravitreal steroids rather than the standard choice of anti-VEGF agents. Some of these, but not all, are discussed in this document.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic systemic disease that has increases in prevalence over time. DM can affect all ocular structures, with cataract being the most common ocular complication. Cataract is the leading cause of blindness worldwide. Due to several mechanisms, there is an increased incidence of cataract formation in the diabetic population. Advancements in technology have now made cataract surgery a common and safe procedure. However, the diabetic population is still at risk of vision-threatening complications, such as diabetic macular edema (ME), postoperative ME, diabetic retinopathy progression, and posterior capsular opacification.

Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of anterior capsular contraction syndrome (ACCS) in cataract patients after implantation with one of two most commonly used hydrophobic acrylic lenses. Setting This study included patients from Loma Linda University, Loma Linda, CA, USA. Design This study is a retrospective chart review. Methods In this study, 1,047 eyes of 811 patients with and without known ACCS risk factors who underwent successful phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation were included. Eyes that sustained intraoperative capsular tears and patients with a postoperative follow-up of <1 month were excluded. Each patient underwent surgery by the same surgeon receiving either the SN60WF IOL or the ZCB00 IOL. The duration of postoperative follow-up along with the presence of ACCS and the dimensions of the anterior capsule opening in these cases were recorded. The incidence of ACCS between the two lenses was compared. Results ACCS was significantly (P=0.045) less frequent in those patients who received the ZCB00 lens compared to those who received the SN60WF lens, despite a significantly greater (P<0.0001) number of patients with ACCS risk factors in the ZCB00 cohort. Conclusion In a direct comparison of the ZCB00 and SN60WF IOLs, a lower incidence of ACCS was found with ZCB00 IOL.

Abstract
AIM To analyze and compare five different variables over one year follow-up (1wk, 1, 3, 6 and 12mo): anterior capsule (AC), and posterior capsule (PC) area densitometry values, AC and PC linear densitometry values, and AC opening area reduction ratio after femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery. METHODS This was a prospective comparative study. Seventy-one patients underwent femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery on single eye between June 2014 and December 2015. A 5.0 mm diameter laser assisted anterior capsulotomy was performed on all eyes. In every post-surgery evaluation, AC opacificaction (ACO) and PC opacification (PCO) density levels were provided by Oculus Pentacam®HR using area and linear densitometry methods. Digital images were captured with a slit-lamp Topcon photographic camera and IMAGEnet® 5 software. The AC opening area on the digital images was measured using the Sketchandcalc area calculator and converted to reduction ratio levels. RESULTS Using Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC), we found no correlation (r=-0.091, P=0.46) in the twelfth month assessment between the evolution of ACO area densitometry values and PCO area densitometry values considered as independent variables. We found no correlation, using PCC (r=-0.096, P=0.43) between the evolution of ACO linear densitometry values and PCO linear densitometry values, in the twelfth month visit, working both as independent variables. AC linear densitometry levels and AC area densitometry levels continued to grow strongly from sixth to twelfth months. Analysis of the values of AC opening area reduction ratio (1wk, 1, 3, 6, 12mo) revealed statistically significant differences between the values of successive examinations but the magnitude of the change decreased. In the final period of monitoring between six and twelve months the magnitude of change was low. CONCLUSION Our results show strong increases of Scheimpflug ACO densitometry values from the sixth to the twelfth month while capsulorhexis area reduction ratio levels displayed a considerable decrease. We found no correlation between ACO area and linear densitometry values and PCO area and linear densitometry values, in the twelfth month examination, working as independent variables.

Abstract
High myopia has long been recognized as an inflammation-related disease, and high myopic eyes are thought to have a proinflammatory internal microenvironment, which might predispose to the occurrence of certain inflammation-related complications such as fibrotic capsular contraction syndrome after cataract surgery. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to detect inflammatory cytokines expressed in the aqueous humor (AH) of high myopic cataract (HMC) patients. The cytokines were screened using a RayBio Human Cytokine Antibody Array in AH samples from 15 age-related cataract (ARC) patients and 15 HMC patients. Those detected by the screening assays were verified using a Bio-Plex Suspension Array System in AH samples from 35 ARC patients and 45 HMC patients. The cytokine antibody array showed that the expression level of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) in the AH was higher in ARC than in HMC, whereas opposite trends were found for monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and presumably secreted (RANTES), IL-8, platelet-derived growth factor-BB, and IL-6 (all P < 0.05). In the verification assay using the suspension cytokine array, only the expression levels of IL-1ra and MCP-1 were significantly different between the ARC and HMC groups (P = 0.014 and 0.038, respectively); these results were confirmed by western blot assays. Our results demonstrated that the expression of IL-1ra was significantly lower and the expression of MCP-1 was significantly higher in the AH of HMC than in ARC, suggestive of a proinflammatory status in the anterior chamber of HMC eyes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the incidence and the risk factors involved in the development of the three main postoperative capsular complications: posterior capsule opacification (PCO), capsular bag distension syndrome (CBDS), and anterior capsular phimosis syndrome (ACP). SUBJECTS, MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 801 patients submitted to cataract surgery in the ophthalmology unit of Hospital del Henares (Madrid) from March 2, 2009 to February 28, 2010. Computerized clinical charts were reviewed during July 2012. PCO was studied using the Kaplan-Meier method (log rank test). RESULTS A total of 167 patients developed PCO. No association could be demonstrated between PCO and age, sex, diabetes mellitus, phaco technique, IOL model, tamsulosin intake, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration. Three patients developed CBDS, all of them have received and Akreos Adapt AO(®) (Bausch & Lomb). Two of them were young men who had received surgery for posterior subcapsular cataracts. Three patients developed ACP, 2 of whom had received a MicroSlim(®) IOL (PhysIOL). CONCLUSIONS No association was found between PCO and any of the studied variables. Male gender, young age, subcapsular cataract and large non-angulated lens such as Akreos Adapt AO(®) could be associated with CBDS. ACP could be more frequent when microincision IOLs (like MicroSlim(®)) are implanted.

Abstract
AIM To compare the development of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) between eyes with and without diabetes mellitus after single-piece hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens implantation 4 years postoperatively. METHODS In this prospective, observational case-control study carried out at Iladevi Cataract and IOL Research Centre, Ahmedabad, India, 75 consecutive eyes with diabetes mellitus (cases) were compared with 75 age-matched eyes with age-related cataract (controls). A detailed, preoperative and posterior segment evaluation was carried out in eyes with diabetes mellitus to detect the presence or absence of diabetic retinopathy (DR). The Mann-Whitney U-test was applied to compare the differences in the development of PCO between the two groups. RESULTS There was no difference in median PCO between cases and controls at 1 month (2.0 vs 1.50, P<0.068), but cases had a higher median PCO at 12 months (2.95 vs 1.30, P<0.001). At 4 years, there was no significant difference in median PCO between cases and controls (3.75 vs 2.25, P=0.273). The duration of diabetes increased the incidence of PCO at 4 years (P=0.02). Severity of DR had no influence on the progress of PCO at 4 years (P=0.69). CONCLUSION Diabetes mellitus did not increase the incidence of PCO at 4 years. The duration of diabetes increased the risk of PCO. The severity of retinopathy did not influence the development of PCO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of capsulorhexis diameter, localization and shape on posterior capsule opacification (PCO) development after cataract extraction with phacoemulsification. MATERIAL/METHODS We retrospectively analyzed of 297 patients who underwent phacoemulsification and AcrySof SA60AT implantation. In a first group of 97 patients, 53 received small capsulorhexis (3.9 to 4.9 mm in diameter) and 44 patients received large capsulorhexis (5.0 to 5.9 mm in diameter). Another group of 99 patients was split into subgroups--66 patients whose capsulorhexis were centrally located and 33 patients whose capsulorhexis were paracentral. A third group of 101 patients was split into subgroups--a subgroup of 59 patients were classified as having a regularly rimmed capsulorhexis and a subgroup of 42 patients as having an irregularly rimmed capsulorhexis. At 6 months follow-up, PCO was classified as none, mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the number of quadrants involved. RESULTS 86.79% of the patients with a small capsulorhexis had no or mild PCO (p<0.001), whereas, 68.18% of the patients with a large capsulorhexis experienced moderate or severe PCO; 89.4% of the patients with a central capsulorhexis had no or mild PCO (p<0.001), whereas, 75.75% of the patients with a paracentral capsulorhexis had moderate or severe PCO; 86.44% of the patients with a regularly rimmed anterior capsulorhexis had no or mild PCO (p<0.001); and 69.04% of the patients with an irregular capsulorhexis rim had moderate or severe PCO. CONCLUSIONS A small capsulorhexis diameter, its central localization and regular shape result in less PCO following phacoemulsification.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the influence of optic edge design on posterior capsule opacification (PCO) and anterior capsule contraction (ACC). METHODS A total of 43 eyes of 43 patients scheduled to undergo cataract surgery were included in this study. Patients received either a Sensor AR40 intraocular lens (IOL) or a Sensor AR40e IOL. The area of the anterior capsule opening (ACO) was determined by diaphanoscopy using the anterior eye segment analysis system EAS-1000 at 1 day, 1 week and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. Posterior capsule opacification was evaluated objectively in two ways, using either the EAS-1000 or POCOman. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the two groups in either ACO area or percentage reduction of ACO area at any time-point after surgery. The difference in the degree of PCO 1 year after surgery was not significant when measured by either the EAS-1000 or POCOman. CONCLUSIONS A sharp IOL edge is required to prevent PCO. Sharp-edged IOLs do not appear to be a risk factor for ACC.

Prospective Intrapatient Comparison of 6.0-Millimeter Optic Single-Piece and 3-Piece Hydrophobic Acrylic Foldable Intraocular Lenses. Ophthalmology 2006; 113:585-90. [PMID: 16581420 DOI: 10.1016/j.ophtha.2005.10.064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 72] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2005] [Revised: 10/26/2005] [Accepted: 10/27/2005] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare postoperative performance and stability of 6.0-mm optic single- and 3-piece acrylic foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs). DESIGN Prospective, randomized, self-controlled trial. PARTICIPANTS Eighty eyes of 40 patients with bilateral senile cataracts. INTERVENTION Phacoemulsification and IOL implantation were performed. One eye of a patient was randomly assigned to the SA60AT single-piece IOL, and the contralateral eye was allocated to the MA60AC 3-piece IOL. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical equivalent, aqueous flare intensity, anterior chamber depth, amount of IOL decentration and tilt, area of anterior capsule opening, and degree of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) were measured 2 days, 1 week, and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Specular microscopy was performed at 12 months postoperatively. RESULTS In the SA60AT group, the anterior chamber depth did not show significant changes after surgery (P>0.05; paired t test), and the refraction remained highly stable throughout the 1-year study period. The MA60AC group showed significant shallowing of the anterior chamber (P<0.05) and a myopic shift (P<0.05) up to 1 month after surgery. There were no significant differences between the 2 groups (P>0.05) in BCVA, aqueous flare intensity, the amount of IOL decentration, IOL tilt, area of anterior capsule opening, and degree of PCO throughout the 12-month follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Both the SA60AT single-piece and MA60AC 3-piece lenses showed a minimum amount of decentration, tilt, anterior capsule contraction, and PCO. Although the MA60AC showed significant forward shift and myopic refractive changes after surgery, the SA60AT displayed little axial movement associated with highly stable refraction after surgery. This feature of the SA60AT should facilitate earlier spectacle prescription and quicker visual/social rehabilitation of patients after cataract surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop an accommodating intraocular lens (IOL) that changes power with ciliary body action and generates a minimum of 8.0 diopters (D) by manipulation of a flexible material between a sulcus-fixated rigid plate and a ciliary muscle-operated capsular diaphragm. SETTING Vissum-Instituto Oftalmológico de Alicante and Miguel Hernández University, Alicante, Spain. METHODS The feasibility of the concept was tested by a laboratory lens model. An implantable measuring device was constructed to simulate the lens action. The device was implanted in monkey eyes to measure the various parameters involved with such IOLs. Based on these measurements, an accommodating IOL prototype was built and implanted in monkeys' eyes. Pharmacologic agents were used to achieve ciliary relaxation and spasm. Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) imaging was used to document the active changes of the IOL flexible lens curvature as related to the ciliary muscles status. RESULTS The laboratory model produced more than 50.0 D of accommodation. The UBM demonstrated changes in lens curvature between cyclospasm to cycloplegia of calculated 9.0 to 53.0 D for flexible material with a refractive index of 1.41. CONCLUSIONS Flexible material is capable of being manipulated when placed between a scleral-fixated rigid plane and the ciliary muscles-operated capsular diaphragm. Such manipulation as used by the IOL concept presented here has generated an active change of more than 40.0 D in the monkey eye.
