Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We report the case of a 52-year-old woman who developed bilateral anterior and posterior subcapsular cataracts with anterior capsule fibrosis 12 years after exposure to intensive radiation therapy. The woman had uneventful cataract surgery and gained 20/20 corrected distance visual acuity in both eyes. Hematoxylin-eosin staining of the anterior capsule revealed significant subcapsular scar formation in the context of fibroblast proliferation.
