Postoperative Complications in ICCE

Postoperative complications in Intraocular Lens Cataract Extraction (ICCE) refer to issues that can arise after surgery to remove a cataract and replace the eye's lens. Common complications include infection, bleeding, and inflammation, which can cause pain and vision problems. There may also be issues with the positioning of the new lens or cloudiness of the eye’s capsule, potentially leading to blurred vision. Most complications are manageable with timely medical attention, but some could require further surgery. Understanding these risks helps patients make informed decisions about their eye care.
