OBSERVATIONAL STUDY
Incidence of posterior capsular opacification requiring Nd:YAG capsulotomy after cataract surgery and implantation of enVista ® MX60 IOL.
Journal Français D'ophtalmologie 2018 December
PURPOSE: To evaluate incidence of posterior capsule opacification requiring Nd:YAG capsulotomy over 3 years in a large series of eyes implanted with the enVista® MX60 Intraocular Lens (IOL).
METHODS: A university-based, single-center, observational study of patients' medical records was conducted. Uneventful cataract surgery patients with in-the-bag implantations of the enVista® MX60 IOL with a minimum of 24 months follow-up were included in the study. Exclusion criteria were insufficient follow-up (<24 months), intraoperative complications and combined surgery. The primary outcome measure was rate of YAG laser capsulotomy, while secondary outcome measures were time to YAG laser capsulotomy and rate of glistenings.
RESULTS: A total of 245 eyes of 143 patients received the MX60 IOL and were followed in the same center. Of these, 226 eyes were included in the study. Mean age was 80.7±8.3 years and M/F ratio was 42/101 (29.4/70.6%). The mean preoperative distance (logMAR) visual acuity was 0.67±0.5, while postoperatively it was 0.31±0.5 and 0.32±0.5 at the last visit. The Mean±SD follow-up time (min-max) was 35.2±7.2, (24-48.4) months. The incidence of Nd:YAG capsulotomy over 3 years was 5/226 (2.2%). Average time between surgery and Nd:YAG capsulotomy was 32.17 months. Univariate analysis of age, gender, presence of comorbidity and baseline visual acuity found no predictive factors for capsulotomy. No glistenings were reported at any postoperative visit.
CONCLUSION: The three-year cumulative incidence of PCO requiring Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy was 2.2% for the enVista® MX-60 IOL, with no glistenings observed during follow-up. This low rate confirms the excellent safety profile of this IOL.
