COMPARISON OF DESCBMET’S MEMBRANE DAMAGE FOLLOWING PHACOEMULSIFICATION USING CORNEAL VALVE INCISIONS WITH 2 MM CORNEAL OR SCLEROCORNEAL TUNNELS. TOULEMONT PJ’ , SERDAREVIC ON2, GROSS1 D3. ‘Dep. of Ophthalmol., Rennes I University (Fr.). 2Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, New York (USA) 3 Dep. of Ophthalmol., Rosario (Argentina) Puroose; We CO”lgJWC. Descemet’s membrane damage following phacoemulsification performed through 2 m m cornea1 or sclerocor”eal tunnels. Methods: 46 (23 pairs) fresh eye bank globes were assigned to incision groups: cornea1 tunnel or sclerocor”eal tunnel with cornea1 valve incision created by 3.2 m diamond blade Following capsulorrhexis and phacoemulsification with nuclear cracking, corneas with scleral rims were excised and stained with trypan blue and alizarin red. Surface areas of Descemet’s detachement were quantified by planimetry. Results: Detachements of Decemet’s membrane around cornea1 valves were smaller after short cornea1 tunnels than after short sclerocor”etll tunnels (p<O,O5) with no difference between keratome and platypus blades No detachement were seen after any type of incision when no further surgery was performed after incision creation. ~‘onclusioq Although diamond blade cornea1 valve incisions don’t damage Descemet’s membrane, detachements occur from instrument manipulation and irrigation after cornea1 valve creation. Short cornea1 tunnels result in better access with less Descemet’s membrane damage.

متن کاملOutcomes of Phacoemulsification Using Different Size of Clear Corneal Incision in Eyes with Previous Radial Keratotomy
OBJECTIVE To evaluate visual outcomes and complications after phacoemulsification in eyes with cataract and previous radial keratotomy (RK) cuts using different sizes of clear corneal incisions. METHODS The study was a retrospective study. Thirty eyes with cataract and previous RK underwent phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Among them 7 eyes had 8 RK cuts, 13 eyes h...

PURPOSE To compare a transconjunctival single-plane sclerocorneal incision with 2 tiny conjunctival cuts at both ends and a clear corneal incision (CCI) in cataract surgery. SETTING Department of Ophthalmology, Institute of Clinical Medicine, University of Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan. METHODS Patients having routine cataract surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups based on incision type; th...
متن کاملCorrelation between Corneal Endothelial Cell Loss and Location of Phacoemulsification Incision
PURPOSE To assess the relationship between corneal endothelial cell loss after phacoemulsification and the location of the clear corneal incision. METHODS A total of 92 patients (92 eyes) with senile cataracts who met the study criteria were included in this cross sectional study and underwent phacoemulsification. The incision site was determined based on the steep corneal meridian according ...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) between one-handed and two-handed cataract surgery techniques. METHODS Eighty-eight eyes of 44 patients with no ocular disease other than cataract, who underwent cataract surgery by a single surgeon, were selected for this study. Cataract surgery was performed by coaxial phacoemulsification and intraocula...
