What is a YAG capsulotomy?
YAG stands for yttrium aluminum garnet, the name of the laser used for this procedure.
What is laser posterior capsulotomy?
Laser posterior capsulotomy, or YAG laser capsulotomy, is a noninvasive procedure performed on the eye to remove the opacification (cloudiness)
What kind of procedure is YAG Laser?
YAG Laser is a treatment which is used for the correction of eye problems such as cataracts. It works by cutting a hole in the clouded lining of the eye, which allows light to pass through, allowing the patient to see properly again. It is an outpatient procedure, which is relatively straightforward and painless.
