ASSESSMENT OF POSTERIOR LENS CAPSULE STATUS OF TRAUMATIC CATARACT USING B-ULTRASONOGRAPHY AND ANTERIOR SEGMENT OCT: CASES REPORT
Main Article Content
Abstract
Posterior capsule rupture is a common injury in traumatic cataracts, complicating cataract surgery and intraocular lens implantation. Trauma leads to lens opacification and often coexists with corneal laceration, iris root rupture, and anterior chamber hemorrhage, which complicates the assessment of the posterior capsule's integrity through slit lamp examination. In these situations, imaging techniques are essential for evaluating the posterior lens capsule before surgery and selecting the appropriate surgical approach. Numerous studies globally have utilized B-ultrasound, anterior segment ultrasound (UBM), anterior segment OCT (AS - OCT), and Scheimpflug imaging to assess the posterior lens capsule post-trauma. Among these, B-scan ultrasonography and AS - OCT are favored for their rapid, noninvasive, and easy application.
