Fig. 111. Incomplete capsular overlap in this left eye has allowed epithelial cell proliferation underneath the optic surface. Cells can be seen invading the midperipheral posterior capsule. No invasion is seen in the areas of overlap. The area of incomplete overlap is the transition zone of the first 90 degrees of capsulorrhexis creation and completion. (Courtesy of James A.
