| Summary: |
Purpose: To compare
ultrasound time, quality and quantity of intraoperative
complications together with the eye condition in early
postoperative period in patients who underwent “divide
and conquer” and “stop and chop” cataract
phacoemulsification.
Material and methods: “Divide and conquer”
phacoemulsification was performed in 49 eyes, whereas
“stop and chop” technique in 67 eyes. Before surgery
axial lengths of the eye, anterior chamber depth and
pupillary reflex were measured. During the surgery
effective phaco time, nucleus hardness and all the
complications were recorded, whereas in the first day
post operation visual acuity and amount of corneal edema
were examined.
Results: The ultrasound time was significantly
shorter in patients operated with “stop and chop”
technique. In the first postoperative day better visual
acuity and smaller amount of corneal edema were observed
in this group.
Conclusions: “Stop and chop” technique gives
better early postoperative results in comparison to
“divide and conquer” technique. The number of
intraoperative complications in both group is low. |
