Thank you so much for your explanation. I am in the same position with PD in left eye, surgery done 3/6/23, followed by a yag laser procedure on 5/25,23, with PD still persisting. I have a follow up this week with the surgeon who thought that the yag would have eliminated the PD.
I am holding on the right eye surgery, but I plan to require the surgeon to use a rounded edge lens. My left eye lens is a J&J DCBOO. This is the "standard" lens that is used by the surgeons in the uni medical practice I selected.
Unfortunately, you and I are in the small % of people who get PD, and, from what I've learned thru research, there's no predicting this outcome.

Yes, it seems that a pretty small percentage get long term PD. Yours having only been done in March (2.5 months) and having had the YAG capsulotomy done only couple weeks ago, is there a chance the PD will settle down more?
