Changes in Anterior Chamber Depth after Combined Phacovitrectomy

OBJECTIVES To evaluate changes in anterior chamber depth (ACD) and postoperative refractive outcomes after combined phacovitrectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study included 10 eyes of 10 patients that underwent combined phacovitrectomy (study group) and 14 eyes of 14 patients that underwent phacoemulsification surgery (control group) at İstanbul Medipol University Ophthalmology Department. ...

anterior chamber depth changes after phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation

purpose: to determine anterior chamber depth (ac depth) changes during a 6 month period after phacoemulsification cataract surgery and foldable intraocular lens (iol) implantation. methods: in a cross-sectional study, 85 eyes of 85 patients were evaluated for ac depth and capsulo-rrhexis size one and six months after the procedure. results: patients included 44 male and 41 female subjects with ...

Depth of anterior chamber after cataract extraction.

A total of 80 patients with senile cataract had the anterior eye chamber depth measured optically by means of Haag-Streit's attachment II. The distance to the pupillary border was 2.59 +/- 0.05 mm (mean +/- SEM) preoperatively. It increased gradually after cataract extraction to 3.33 +/- 0.04 mm, measured 4 months after the operation. The increase of depth was the greatest in patients with a fl...

Changes in anterior chamber depth during accommodation: a pilot study

RESULTS: Changes in each position of the ACD resulting from accommodation were small and generally insignificant (P > 0.05). The statistically deepest ACD value for all vergences was found at the central position. The superior-nasal and temporal-inferior pairs did not show statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) for all vergences. In addition, temporal and inferior chamber depths were ...
