These IOLs had the same optic geometry (square edged) but different material and design. Central PCO (CPCO), peripheral PCO (PPCO), Sommering&rsquo;s ring (SR) formation, type of growth, extension of PCO, cell type, inhibition, and fibrosis were evaluated three weeks after surgery. Histological sections of each globe were prepared to document the evaluation of PCO.Results: No statistically significant difference was observed between a hydrophobic acrylic IOL and a hydrophilic acrylic IOL in relation to the CPCO, PPCO, type of growth, extension, cell type, inhibition, and fibrosis. Statistically significant difference was observed in relation to the formation of SR with Acrysof SA 60 AT group presenting more SR than Akreos Disc group.Conclusion: PCO was not influenced by the material of the IOL or the design of the haptics of the IOLs we studied.Keywords: posterior capsule opacification, intraocular lenses, rabbit model Nikolaos TrakosElli IoachimElena TsanouMiltiadis AspiotisKonstantinos PsilasChris KalogeropoulosDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2008, Iss Issue 4, Pp 997-1005 (2009)
