opposite clear corneal incisions versus on-axis incision during phacoemulsification to correct pre-existing astigmatism
purpose: to compare the efficacy of adding an opposite clear corneal incision (occi) on the steep axis during phacoemulsification in reducing the 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 type of astigmatism as follows: superior or superior+o...
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 ...
متن کاملSurgically 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 کاملDynamic morphology of clear corneal cataract incisions.
OBJECTIVE Clear corneal cataract incisions without sutures allow for rapid visual rehabilitation after phacoemulsification but might be associated with an increased risk of postoperative infection. The goal of this study was to examine in vitro dynamic changes in unhealed clear corneal cataract incisions that might adversely affect the risk of intraocular infection. DESIGN Laboratory investig...
متن کاملThe Stromal Hydration of Clear Corneal Incisions
D r. Vasavada regularly performs stromal hydration, at both the clear corneal temporal incision and paracentesis, as part of his strategy for sealing the wound after cataract surgery. Further, he has found stromal hydration to be a useful adjunct in clear corneal cataract surgery, because it allows the adequate approximation of the anterior and posterior aspects of the corneal tunnel. Today, su...
