posterior capsule opacification
Explanation:
or PC haze (PC - posterior capsule)
Beschläge derives from beschlagen - cloud over, become hazy

See if that works for you.

The lens capsule is the thin, elastic-like bag that holds the intraocular lens (IOL) in position after cataract surgery. During the operation, the front (anterior) portion of the lens capsule is carefully opened and the cataract is removed. The IOL is inserted into the remaining (posterior) portion of the capsule.

The remaining portion of the capsule becomes clouded in about 25% of cataract surgery patients. When this occurs, patients experience symptoms similar to those from the original cataract. That’s why posterior capsule opacification is also known as secondary cataract.

HKL - IOL


Explanation:

HKL is Hinterkammerlinse (but maybe that is not what you were asking for) and I think that is intraocular lens or IOL in English.

I am not sure about the Beschläge - moisture? I'll look a bit more and try to find out.

Kompliziert wurde der operative Eingriff in 2 Augen durch eine gleichzeitige Autorotationskeratoplastik und in 5 Augen durch eine Nachstarexcision. Bei einem Kind war 1 Jahr nach sekundärer HKL-Implantation eine perforierende Keratoplastik erforderlich. Bei allen Augen trat als frühe postoperative Komplikation eine Fibrinexsudation auf, deren Folgen - wie permanente Beschläge und hintere Synechien - bei Verwendung heparinmodifizierter IOL deutlich zurückgingen. Postoperativ stieg der Visus in allen 14 Augen auf 0,4 bis 1,0 an.

Could it be referring to moisture droplets?
