  Objectives: To evaluate functional and anatomical changes in macular region after Nd:YAG capsulotomy. Background: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables to visualize, compare and evaluate macular region of retina. Method: 36 patients, 17 men and 19 women (40 eyes) with posterior capsule opacification underwent Nd:YAG capsulotomy. Average age was 78.2 ± 13 years. Day 1 after procedure and after 1 month best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intra ocular pressure (IOP), foveal minimal thickness (FMT) and macular volume (MV) were evaluated. Diclophenacum natricum drops (Uniclophen 0.1%) for 3 weeks QID were administered. Results: Average BCVA in day 1 was 0.71, median 0.50, after 1 month was 0.80, median 0.67. Average MFT in day 1 was 197.63 ± 10.3 μm, median 189 ± 9 μm a.. View More»
