(a) Representative photos of posterior capsule opacification in each group 8 weeks after surgery. a1–a3: retroillumination slit-lamp view, a4–a6: Miyake-Apple view. (b) Quantification of PCO scores in each group by EPCO 2000 software or Miyake-Apple view analysis, respectively. n = 8. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. CPCO: central posterior capsule opacification, PPCO: periphery posterior capsule opacification. (c) Representative HE staining images of posterior capsule in each group 8 weeks after surgery. Black arrowheads indicate migration and proliferation of LECs on the posterior capsule. PC: posterior capsule. Scale bar = 50 μm.
