| Summary: |
Purpose: To evaluate postoperative astgmatism after cataract surgery.
Material and methods: The studied group consist of 135 patients subjected to cataract surgery; 75 patients (75 eyes) had extracapsular cataract extraction with 12 mm corneoscleral incision (group I); 30 patients (30 eyes) had phacoemulsification with 3,5 mm corneal incision (group II); 30 patients (30 eyes) had phacoemulsification with 3.5 mm tunnel incision (group III). Astigmatism was measured on the 6th day and 2 years after surgery.
Results: Mean astigmatism on the 6th postoperative day was 4,19 D (SD=1,20) for group I, 2,50 D (SD=0,47) for group II and 1,79 D (SD=0,61) for group III. The differences between all the groups were statistically significant. The astigmatism assessed 2 years after surgery returned to preoperative values and there was statistic difference only between group I and III.
Conclusion: Two years after cataract surgery astigmatism is comparable with the preoperative values irrespective of the operation technique. |
