Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In the first step of the study, data was collected from the patients´charts.
In the second phase, a questionaire was sent to the patients with no recent examination, asking them to answer whether or not participants received a laser procedure due to PCO. In doubt the participants could answer: "I am not certain". For this step the investigator ensured the positive Votum of the Ethic Committee of the University of Greifswald, Germany.
On the third step of the study, the patients that were not certain of having such a laser procedure or did not answer per post, will be contacted on telephone. By uncertainty or no answer on the telephone the family eye doctor will be contacted to receive the necessary information. If the eye doctor has lost contact to the patient, then this patient will be documented as lost-to-follow-up.
Excluded were the patients that live \>50km from the Department of Ophthalmology in Neubrandenburg, as well as patients with intraoperative capsule tear.
For the statistical analysis was used the program STATISTICA (StatSoft, Hamburg, Germany) and the survival analysis using the Kaplan-Meier formula, the statistical significance using the Chi-squared test and Spearman-Rank corelation and the Bonferroni adjustment if the test was repeated.
The investigators compared these results with the results of other publication. In order to do that the investigators calculated the capsulotomy quote from this study according to the time of the PCO recorded on the other studies. Included were only comparing studies that also used YAG-capsulotomy as criterium for the PCO.
Furthermore secondary data was collected: age, gender, cutting length, core hardness, duration of whole operation, time of phaco-emulsification, phaco-energy, phaco-machine, combination with other operation, surgeon, power of IOL. This data will be taken in concern for the validity of this study.

Implantation of IOL L313
Patients who have undergone a cataract surgery with implantation of the monofocal MICS IOL L313 more than 3 Years ago will be asked about the Treatment for Postoperative observation and survey.
Postoperative observation and survey
For postoperative Observation with a survey we ask the patients (or in case of no information the ophthalmologist) whether they had undergone a YAG-Laser-Capsulotomy after Cataract-Surgery or not.
Interventions
Learn about the drugs, procedures, or behavioral strategies being tested and how they are applied within this trial.
Postoperative observation and survey
For postoperative Observation with a survey we ask the patients (or in case of no information the ophthalmologist) whether they had undergone a YAG-Laser-Capsulotomy after Cataract-Surgery or not.
Eligibility Criteria
