YAG LASER POSTERIOR CAPSULOTOMY

A one-page care plan for patients having YAG LASER POSTERIOR CAPSULOTOMY, covering Purpose, Prevention & Protection, Expectations & Execution, Next Steps, Consistency, Clarity & Care, Indications and Lifestyle & Long-Term Success.

In this plan

  1. Purpose, Prevention & Protection

    • I know the cloudy capsule formed after cataract surgery; my cataract did not grow back.
    • I review the benefits, risks, alternatives, and how waiting may allow blurry vision or glare to continue.
    • I report glaucoma, high eye pressure, severe nearsightedness, retinal problems, eye inflammation, and prior eye surgery.
    • I follow instructions for food, eye drops, and medicines; I arrange a ride because my vision will be dilated and blurry.
