Özet
Pseudoexfoliation syndrome is characterized by the accumulation of extracellular matrix materials in ocular tissues that predisposes individuals to the development of glaucoma and cataracts, complicating the process of cataract surgery. This pathophysiological condition not only exacerbates the complexity of cataract surgery but also demands a refined surgical acumen for its management. The objective of this review is to identify and evaluate management strategies that hold the potential to mitigate risks and enhance surgical outcomes, particularly for this patient.
