Millions of cataract surgeries with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation are performed worldwide. Although cataract surgery brings many benefits to the patients, the risk of various complications is still a concern. One of the infrequent adverse events but potentially affecting on patients' visual acuity and contrast sensitivity is losing the transparency of IOL. IOL opacification may lead to IOL removal or exchange, which is unpleasant to both the patient and the surgeon. Several reports of acute IOL clouding are available in the literature describing various etiologies of this phenomenon, however, the exact mechanism remained unclear in some cases. Herein, we aimed to review the causes and outcomes of intraoperative and early postoperative IOL opacification.
全球范围内进行了数百万例白内障手术并植入人工晶状体(IOL)。尽管白内障手术给患者带来了诸多益处,但各种并发症的风险仍是一个令人担忧的问题。人工晶状体透明度丧失是一种罕见但可能影响患者视力和对比敏感度的不良事件之一。人工晶状体混浊可能导致人工晶状体取出或更换,这对患者和外科医生来说都很不愉快。文献中有几篇关于急性人工晶状体混浊的报道,描述了这种现象的各种病因,然而,在某些情况下,确切机制仍不清楚。在此,我们旨在综述术中及术后早期人工晶状体混浊的原因及后果。
