Surgically induced astigmatism after phacoemulsification by temporal clear corneal and superior clear corneal approach: a comparison
Introduction Cataract surgery has undergone various advances since it was evolved from ancient couching to the modern phacoemulsification cataract surgery. Surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) remains one of the most common complications. The introduction of sutureless clear corneal incision has gained increasing popularity worldwide because it offers several advantages over the traditional sut...
متن کاملComparison of preoperative and postoperative astigmatism after superotemporal or superonasal clear corneal incision in phacoemulsification.
The aim of this work was comparison of preoperative and postoperative astigmatism after superotemporal or superonasal clear corneal incision. Twenty eight eyes of 28 patients treated with phacoemulsification through superotemporal or superonasal 3 mm clear corneal incision were examined by kerato-refractometer preoperatively and six months postoperatively. Adequate score was assigned to each pr...
متن کاملComparison of the Keratometric Corneal Astigmatic Power after Phacoemulsification: Clear Temporal Corneal Incision versus Superior Scleral Tunnel Incision
Objective. This is prospective randomized control trial to compare the mean keratometric corneal astigmatism diopter power (not surgical induced astigmatism) among preop and one-month and three-month postop phacoemulcification of either a clear temporal corneal incision or a superior scleral tunnel Incision, using only keratometric astigmatic power reading to evaluate the difference between the...
متن کاملComparison of Pre and Postoperative Astigmatism after Cataract Extraction by Phacoemulsification through a 3.2 MM Clear Corneal Superotemporal Incision
Material and Methods: A prospective study was performed on 144 eyes of 132 patients. They were operated upon for cataract between 12/01/2007 and 31/12/2012 by a single eye surgeon at a private set up. Follow up period was from 6 month to five years (mean 33 months). The patients included in this study, underwent cataract surgery by phacoemulsification through 3.2 mm superotemporal clear corneal...
متن کاملOpposite Clear Corneal Incisions versus Steep Meridian Incision Phacoemulsification for Correction of Pre-existing Astigmatism
PURPOSE To compare the efficacy of adding an opposite clear corneal incision (OCCI) on the steep meridian versus performing surgery on the steep meridian alone during phacoemulsification in reducing pre-existing corneal astigmatism. METHODS This randomized clinical trial was performed on 120 eyes with corneal astigmatism of >1D undergoing phacoemulsification. Incisions were made based on the ...
