Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy (YAG PC) on best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), central macular thickness (CMT), intraocular pressure (IOP), and refraction in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM).
Material and Methods: This retrospective study included patients who underwent YAG PC due to posterior capsular opacification (PCO). BCVA, refraction examination results, IOP, and CMT of the patients were evaluated. All patients were examined before, one day, and one month after the treatment.
Results: The study included 56 eyes from 48 diabetic patients (diabetic group, Group 1) and 61 eyes from 50 nondiabetic patients (nondiabetic group, Group 2). In Group 1, a significant increase was observed between pre-treatment BCVA and the first-day and first-month BCVAs. Similarly, a significant increase was observed on the first day and first-month CMT compared to the pre-treatment CMT. On the other hand, a significant increase was observed in Group 2 between pre-treatment BCVA and the first-day and first-month BCVAs. However, no significant increase was observed between pre-treatment and the first-day and first-month CMT.
Conclusion: Although CMT has increased in patients with DM after YAG PC, applied for PCO treatment, this increase did not affect the visual recovery.
