Complete Blood Cell Count-Derived Inflammation Biomarkers and the Need for Laser Capsulotomy Due to Posterior Capsule Opacification Following Cataract Surgery.

Preoperative NLR scores were higher in patients who developed clinically significant PCO requiring treatment with Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy. This finding suggests that patients with elevated systemic inflammation may be at an increased risk of developing PCO following cataract surgery. Further research is needed to evaluate the role of systemic inflammation in the pathogenesis of PCO.
