PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of dexamethasone, diclofenac, and a placebo given for 3 weeks after phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation on the formation of posterior capsule opacification (PCO).
SETTING: St. Erik's Eye Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden.
METHODS: In a 2-year prospective randomized double-blind study, a laser flare meter was used to measure aqueous flare intensity preoperatively and 3 days, 2 weeks, and 2 years after phacoemulsification and IOL implantation. Posterior capsule opacification was evaluated 2 years postoperatively using retroillumination images taken with a Scheimpflug camera. The Evaluation of Posterior Capsule Opacification system was used to score the areas of PCO density.
RESULTS: The median rate of PCO 2 years after phacoemulsification was 0.72 (range 0.32 to 1.57) in the dexamethasone group, 0.78 (range 0.19 to 2.14) in the diclofenac group, and 0.70 (range 0.35 to 1.70) in the placebo group. The differences were not statistically significant (P>.05; Kruskal-Wallis analysis of variance, multiple comparisons). The rate of neodymium:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy during the 2 years after surgery was not statistically different between groups (P>.05, chi-square test). There was no correlation (Spearman rank coefficient) between laser flare measurements and PCO formation in any group during the study (P>.05).
CONCLUSION: Topical instillation of diclofenac, dexamethasone, or a placebo in the immediate period after phacoemulsification and IOL implantation did not seem to influence the formation of PCO 2 years after cataract surgery.
