ABSTRACT
A descriptive case series of five patients identified either opportunistically or from a retrospective review of the laser register is presented. All underwent cataract surgery between 1995 and 1999 and required initial NdYAG laser posterior capsulotomy 15-30 months after surgery. They subsequently developed reclosure of the capsulotomy, necessitating repeat laser capsulotomy 11-82 months later. One patient, who received a hydrogel intraocular lens, required a third capsulotomy after a further 12 months. The rate of repeat NdYAG laser capsulotomy in our unit was 0.31%.
