Application of capsular bag relaxation for capsular contraction syndrome.

The present study analyzed the surgical method and clinical effects of capsular bag relaxation surgery (CBRS) for the treatment of capsular contraction syndrome (CCS), which usually occurs post-phacoemulsification. The retrospective case study comprised of a total of 25 patients (25 eyes) who developed CCS after phacoemulsification and subsequently underwent CBRS. Among these patients, 15 patients (15 eyes) received actinoid relaxing incisions and 10 patients (10 eyes) underwent a second continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis.
