| Abstract | PURPOSE: To compare the development of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) and neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) capsulotomy rates between 2 microincision intraocular lenses (IOLs) 4 years after surgery. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria. DESIGN: Prospective randomized clinical trial. METHODS: Patients randomly received a Y-60H 3-piece hydrophobic IOL (hydrophobic group) in 1 eye and an MI60 1-piece hydrophilic IOL (hydrophilic group) in the contralateral eye during simultaneous bilateral cataract surgery. Eyes were examined 1 week, 20 months, and 4 years postoperatively. Digital retroilluminated images of each eye were evaluated using Automated Quantification of After-Cataract software. The Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy rate was recorded. RESULTS: Sixty patients were enrolled. Objective PCO was significantly higher in the hydrophobic group than in the hydrophilic group before capsulotomy 2 years after cataract surgery (mean score 2.1 ± 1.8 (SD) versus 1.2 ± 1.4) (P =.031). At the 4-year follow-up, the hydrophobic group had a statistically significantly higher Nd:YAG rate than the hydrophilic group (77% versus 50%) (P =.012). CONCLUSION: Comparison of 2 microincision IOLs indicated a statistically significant difference in PCO and Nd:YAG capsulotomy rates, with very high Nd:YAG rates 4 years after surgery. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
