Retrospective Analyses of Potential Risk Factors for Posterior Capsule Opacification after Cataract Surgery by Shuang Wu, Nianting Tong, Lin Pan, Xiaohui Jiang, Yanan Li, MeiLing Guo, Hehuan Li

“…Statistically significant associations with PCO were found for age at the time of surgery (χ2 = 78.504; p<0.001), diabetes (χ2 = 4.829; p=0.028), immune diseases (χ2 = 4.234; p=0.004), high myopia (χ2 = 5.753; p=0.016), lens nucleus hardness (χ2 = 11.046; p=0.026), surgery type (χ2 = 11.354; p=0.001), a history of vitrectomy (χ2 = 4.212; p=0.004), ocular inflammation (χ2 = 6.01; p=0.009), and the intraocular lens (IOL) type (χ2 = 8.696; p=0.003). Multivariable data analyses using logistic regression analyses of the variables showed that age at the time of surgery <60 years, diabetes, lens nucleus hardness of III–V, extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE), postvitrectomy, and hydrophilic IOLs were significant independent risk factors associated with PCO. …”
