Journal ArticleDOI

Uveal and capsular biocompatibility of hydrophilic acrylic, hydrophobic acrylic, and silicone intraocular lenses.

TL;DR: The differences in cellular reaction, although clinically mild in normal eyes, indicate that there were more giant cells with hydrophobic acrylic IOLs and an increased tendency toward LEC outgrowth withhydrophilic lenses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Results of hydrophilic acrylic, hydrophobic acrylic, and silicone intraocular lenses in uveitic eyes with cataract: comparison to a control group.

TL;DR: Intraocular lens biocompatibility is inversely related to inflammation, and hydrophilic acrylic material had good uveal but worse capsular biOCompatibility while silicone showed a higher small cell count and more severe ACO but achieved PCO results comparable to FBGC results and better than those with the AcrySof lens 6 months after surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two year results: sharp versus rounded optic edges on silicone lenses.

TL;DR: The silicone IOL with the sharp optic edge design was associated with significantly reduced PCO 2 years postoperatively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular invasion on hydrogel and poly(methyl methacrylate) implants. An in vivo study.

TL;DR: Over a two‐year postoperative period, cells on hydrogel (poly HEMA) and poly(methyl methacrylate) intraocular lenses (IOLs) were observed by specular microscopy and it was found that in eyes with prolonged postoperative inflammation a greater number of cells was observed and the cells remained on the IOL surface for a longer period.
