Abstract

Both the CeeOn Edge and AcrySof groups had a low incidence of PCO after an 18-month follow-up. The CeeOn Edge group had significantly less PCO than the AcrySof group. These results confirm that IOLs with square truncated edges create a barrier effect at the optic edge, reducing the overall incidence of PCO.
