The most important and easily recogniz...
متن کاملPhacoemulsification in pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome.
The aim is to present the phacoemulsification phaco-chop technique in a patient with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) syndrome without the use of additional pupil dilatation methods. Phacoemulsification surgery and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation in patients with PEX syndrome is associated with a higher rate of intraoperative complications such as zonular dehiscence, capsular rupture, vi...

متن کاملRisk factors for corneal endothelial cell loss by cataract surgery in eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the factors associated with decreases in corneal endothelial cell density (ECD) resulting from cataract surgery in eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX). METHODS The clinical records of 78 eyes of 78 patients with PEX who had undergone cataract surgery were reviewed. ECD was measured preoperatively and at 3 months postoperatively with spec...
متن کاملComplications of cataract surgery in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome.
BACKGROUND The weak zonule's predisposition to complications during conventional cataract surgery is one of the common risk factor for poor visual acuity after surgery. The present study was conducted to determine the frequency and types of complications during cataract surgery in patients with Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome. METHODS A cross sectional descriptive study based on non probability sa...
