Newer IOL formulas include more anterior segment parame- ters, and accurate measurement of these parameters, including LT, is crucial for minimizing refractive errors. Thus, the results of optical biometry should be carefully evaluated.

Modied neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet laser capsulotomy for complete anterior capsular contraction syndrome Anterior capsular contraction syndrome (ACCS) is dened as an exaggerated reduction of the capsular bag diameter, as a result of the contact between residual lens epithelial cells and intraocular lens (IOL), on the edge of continuous curvi- linear capsulorhexis. It is a well-known but rare complica- tion after uneventful cataract surgery. 1 The aetiology remains unclear. However, a number of factors have been associated, including small rhexis (<4 mm diameter), pseudoexfoliation, uveitis, high myopia, retinitis pigmentosa, myotonic dystrophy, and diabetes. 1 Additionally, IOL biomaterial and design are well-estab- lished related factors. 2 Silicone IOLs are known to lead to a greater degree of capsular contraction than acrylic IOLs. ACCS typically occurs within the rst 3 postoperative months. The degree of phimosis can be signicant enough to displace IOL causing secondary refractive shift or occlude the visual axis and reduce vision. Both require anterior cap- sulotomy either with a neodymium-doped yttrium alumin- ium garnet (Nd:YAG) laser or surgically. 2 We report a case of anterior capsular contraction with com- plete occlusion of the visual axis. Treatment with Nd:YAG laser was performed after a C-shaped superior arcuate pattern. A 65-year-old woman presented to our institution, com- plaining of gradual deterioration of vision in her right eye. Written consent was obtained from the patient. Four months before her visual symptoms, she had undergone uneventful cataract surgery. A monofocal, single-piece, hydrophilic IOL (RayOne, Rayner, Ltd) was implanted at the time of surgery. She was otherwise t and well with no ocular history. On examination, her best-corrected visual acuity was RE 6/ 60 and LE 6/6. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy revealed marked thickening of the anterior capsule with capsular contraction and complete occlusion of the capsulorhexis opening (Fig. 1). Anterior chamber (AC) was deep and quiet without any signs of uveitis or zonular weakness. Anterior segment opti- cal coherence tomography showed a central thick hyper- reective band placed between the iris plane and IOL, occluding the visual axis (Fig. 2). Our primary approach was an Nd:YAG laser anterior capsu- lotomy. Initial attempts to laser the central thick membrane in a cross-shaped pattern failed. Despite higher energy settings, the laser did not penetrate the thickened anterior brosis. Sub- sequently an arcuate Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy was success- fully performed. This involved directing laser shots to the peripheral anterior capsule in a C-shaped 200-degree pattern starting superiorly (Fig. 1, red hemicircle). This anterior capsu- lotomy conguration resolved contraction and displaced the thick opacity inferiorly. One month after laser treatment, visual acuity improved to 6/6 unaided, the IOL remained stable, and no recurrence of phimosis noted. Subsequent review at 6 and 12 months showed a similar clinical picture with unaided vision of 6/6 maintained, and the capsulotomy site remained clear (Fig. 1).
