Nucleus Drop
Nucleus Drop, also known as dropped nucleus or dropped lens fragment, occurs when a portion of the cataractous lens nucleus falls into the vitreous cavity during cataract surgery. This can lead to complications such as:
- Increased risk of retinal detachment
- Inflammation and swelling of the eye (endophthalmitis)
- Loss of visual acuity
Treatment for Nucleus Drop typically involves surgical intervention to remove the dropped nucleus fragment and minimize potential complications.
Intraocular Lens (IOL) Drop
Intraocular Lens (IOL) Drop, also known as dislocated IOL, happens when the artificial lens implanted during cataract surgery becomes displaced from its original position within the eye. This can cause symptoms such as:
- Blurred or distorted vision
- Double vision (diplopia)
- Glare or halos around lights
Management of Intraocular Lens (IOL) Drop depends on the severity of displacement and associated symptoms. Treatment may involve repositioning the IOL through surgical intervention or replacing the IOL with a new one.
Nucleus Drop and Intraocular Lens (IOL) Drop are rare but serious complications that can occur during or after cataract surgery. Prompt recognition and appropriate management are essential for minimizing visual impairment and optimizing outcomes. If you experience symptoms suggestive of these complications following cataract surgery, it’s crucial to consult your eye surgeon for evaluation and treatment.
We hope this guide has provided valuable insights into Nucleus Drop and Intraocular Lens (IOL) Drop. If you have any concerns or questions about your eye health or cataract surgery, don’t hesitate to seek advice from an eye care professional.
