Article Synopsis
- The study investigates early postoperative surface deposits on hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs) using cases from the Altino Ventura Foundation in Brazil and the University of Utah.
- Clinical observations noted that five patients developed IOL surface deposits shortly after surgery, but these deposits resolved without causing inflammation or affecting visual outcomes.
- Laboratory analyses of unused lenses showed similar deposits with a composition mainly of carbon and oxygen, suggesting potential links to the manufacturing process that require further investigation.
