What is a “secondary cataract”?

A secondary cataract is opacification of the posterior capsule which is the support where the intraocular lens is placed after cataract surgery. This can be easily corrected with LASER treatment (Nd: YAG capsulotomy) in the outpatient department. Once treated, it does not recur.
