Effect of Capsular Tension Ring on Refractive and Morphological Outcomes in Pseudoexfoliative Eyes
Routine CTR implantation during uneventful phacoemulsification in PEX eyes appears to prevent the pseudoexfoliative hyperopic shift previously reported, likely due to more even zonular tension distribution. If CTR is not used, a slightly myopic target should be considered.
