Impact of Phacoemulsification Cataract Surgery to Number of Corneal Endothelial Cells: A Descriptive Study

The main optical structure of the eyes is lens and corneal because with cornea, focuses image visual world onto retina. Both affected by age, it affects endothelial cells transparency lens. By aging decrease loses its then cataract appears [1,2]. known that surgery effecting number. will be decreasing severity to which endothelium depends on many factors, such as phacoemulsification time energy, surgical technique, anterior chamber depth, use ophthalmic viscoelastic devices (OVDs) [3]. A total 52 people cataracts were enrolled in this descriptive investigation. study included eyes. Ages ranged from 43-77 years, a mean age 57,7 years. From 59,6% men rest are women, 79% diagnosed immature cataract, 21% mature cataract. It was found 86,5% experienced number after surgery. density pre 3126 cells/mm2 ± 246,1 post-surgery 3029 cells/mm2. range 6-30 minutes.
