Efficacy of Different Intraocular Lens Materials and Optic Edge Designs in Preventing Posterior Capsular Opacification: A Meta-Analysis

The rates of PCO and Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy may be influenced by different IOL biomaterials and optic edge designs. The lenses made by acrylic and silicone and those with sharp optic edges are superior in lowering the rates of PCO and laser capsulotomy.
