Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is a common complication that can occur after cataract surgery, where the capsule that holds the intraocular lens (IOL) becomes cloudy, leading to blurry vision. Treatment for PCO typically involves performing a laser capsulotomy, where a laser is used to create an opening in the cloudy capsule, restoring clear vision.

The procedure is minimally invasive, performed in an outpatient setting, and requires no stitches. It usually takes only a few minutes, and most patients experience an immediate improvement in their vision after the procedure.

PCO treatment with laser capsulotomy is highly effective and has a low complication rate. It provides long-term visual clarity for patients who experience post-cataract surgery cloudiness, ensuring that their vision remains clear and functional.
