Abstract
The 1CU IOL has 4 broad optic-haptic junctions where the square-edged barrier is breached; this appeared to allow passage of lens epithelial cells, leading to an increase in PCO. However, the increased PCO cannot be attributed to this alone as the 1CU is hydrophilic, a factor known to be associated with higher PCO rates.
