Simsek C, et al. - Analysts assess the elastic modulus, hardness, and mechanical properties of the anterior lens capsule in different types of cataract and aim to evaluate the correlation with age. Capsule thickness was positively correlated with increasing age in all groups. The anterior lens capsules of patients with PXF had more elasticity and less stiffness than the other groups. Intracameral trypan blue application had no impact on capsule elasticity and stiffness.
