Both hydrophobic acrylic IOLs showed low PCO and YAG rates with a small but significant favor of the Vivinex XY1 IOL compared to the Clareon CNA0T0 IOL. The interaction of various factors such as hydrophobic material, smooth optic surface and sharp posterior optic edge is the major key for PCO prevention.
