Core Tip Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) is a known late sequelae of cataract surgery. Our study uncovers risk of PCO in teaching institutions is associated with surgeon experience in that YAG capsulotomy rates are higher in patients whose cataract surgery was performed by a more experienced surgeon.
