Table 5 Subjective grading of the quality of capsulotomy.
Grading | Description |
|---|---|
1—Poor | Incomplete laser-cut (≥ 10%) with macroadhesions (capsular tag/tags), resulting in very severe resistance to remove the capsule or Irregular laser-cut with significantly distorted capsular edge |
2—Bad | Incomplete laser-cut (< 10%) with macroadhesions (capsular tag/tags), resulting in severe resistance to remove the capsule |
3—Average | Complete laser-cut and capsule < 50% free with macroadhesions (capsular tag/tags), resulting in moderate resistance to remove the capsule |
4—Fair | Complete laser-cut and capsule ≥ 50% but < 90% free with macroadhesions (capsular tag/tags), resulting in mild resistance to remove the capsule |
5—Good | Complete laser-cut and capsule ≥ 50% but < 90% free with microadhesion/microadhesions, resulting in minimal resistance to remove the capsule |
6—Excellent | Complete laser-cut and capsule ≥ 90% free, with no resistance to remove the capsule or Free-floating capsule |
