Square edged foldable acrylic IOLs show a predisposition towards generating slightly less PCO than round edged PMMA IOLs in the early postoperative period, however, both acrylic IOLs had greater persistent hyperopia than the PMMA IOLs.
Eyes receiving celecoxib-IOL/PA had better initial control of inflammation. Bromfenac was equally effective compared with PA in controlling inflammation. There was no association between COX-2 inhibitor administration and ocular hypertension. Celecoxib-IOL/PA-treated eyes showed better initial control of PCO (up to 12 weeks), while eyes receiving bromfenac had better long-term control of PCO (56 weeks).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
