چکیده
Results: 51 patients underwent phacoemulsification under topical anesthesia and 49 patients underwent phacoemulsification under peribulbar anesthesia. No statistical differences were found in surgery duration, intra-operative complications, pain, blood pressure or Oxygen saturation (SPO2). Topical group did not require additional subconjunctival injection. 4/49 (8.16%) in peribulbar group required additional topical anesthesia. This was statistically significant (p=0.04). Anesthesia related complications were only seen in peribulbar group.
