An Overview of Nd:YAG Laser Capsulotomy

Abstract Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy is accepted as standard treatment for posterior capsule opacification (PCO). Although, Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy is a noninvasive and safe treatment it carries risk of some complications. Using less total energy and performing smaller capsulotomies are effective choices to decrease complications after Nd:YAG capsulotomy.
