Purpose: Severely myopic eyes have been associated with high posterior capsule opacification (PCO) incidence. Although it has been reported that myopic eyes have weaker or more delayed capsule adhesion than emmetropic eyes, it is unclear whether/how dioptric power and posterior curvature of IOLs affect IOLs' affinity for the posterior lens capsule (PLC) and their PCO potential.
Methods: To investigate this, acrylic foldable IOLs with increasing dioptric power of 6.

In this article, we discuss Ye 's recent article on the association between age at diabetes diagnosis and subsequent risk of age-related ocular diseases. The study, which utilized United Kingdom Biobank data, highlighted a strong link between early diabetes onset and major eye conditions, such as cataracts, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, and vision loss, independent of glycemic control and disease duration. This finding challenges the previous belief that diabetic eye disease primarily correlates with hyperglycemia.
