This study involves using both a device that seals the capsular
bag (where the lens is located) allowing safer irrigation of the
capsular bag and sodium chloride to irrigate the capsular bag
during cataract surgery on children. The purpose of this study
is to determine if the use of the device, Perfect Capsule, along
with sodium chloride reduces the development of posterior
capsule opacification (PCO), a possible complication of cataract
surgery. PCO is the clouding of the rear portion of the natural
membrane or capsule that holds the artificial lens. It requires
additional procedures to correct the problem. Sodium chloride is
not usually used during cataract surgery. It will be used to
irrigate the capsular bag and remove any residual cells that
contribute to the development of PCO. Perfect Capsule will
prevent the sodium chloride from touching other parts of the
eye. The goal of this study is to determine if irrigation with
sodium chloride will lower the incidence of PCO after cataract
surgery.
