Abstract
AcrySof and sharp-edged silicone IOLs are similarly effective in inhibition of PCO after cataract surgery. In patients implanted with the AcrySof lens, significantly less PCO developed than in those who had round-edged silicone or PMMA IOLs. The results of this meta-analysis support the theory that a major factor in preventing PCO development is a sharp-edged IOL design.
