Peer2Peer Deep Dive | 12 Month RCT Results: Does IOL Material Matter for PCO?

Tune in to this AI-powered Deep Dive to unpick the question that changes how we think about long-term lens clarity! Does IOL material really matter for keeping the capsule clear? In this high-energy clinical breakdown, we dissect a landmark 12-month randomised controlled trial (RCT) by Naderi et al. from the Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery. Two identical lens designs by Rayner are pitted directly against each other - the hydrophilic RayOne 600C versus the hydrophobic RayOne 800C - to isolate material performance like never before. In just a few minutes, you’ll discover: How the hydrophilic 600C and hydrophobic 800C stack up when edge and haptic variables are completely eliminated. The cutting-edge methodology used to map PCO with extreme accuracy. The preliminary 12-month data on visually significant PCO and Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy rates - and what this means for your practice efficiency and patient satisfaction.
