RESUMEN
Flanged intrascleral intraocular lens implantation has become one of the mainstream treatment solutions for aphakia in clinical practice due to its ability to avoid dislocation of the intraocular lens,or subluxation caused by suture degradation or breakage,as well as the ability to eliminate complications such as inflammation or infection caused by su-tures,and the significant improvement in postoperative vision for patients.However,there has been no systematic analysis of the factors that may lead to postoperative refractive prediction errors in China.This article analyzes the possible prob-lems of flanged intrascleral intraocular lens implantation and the reasons for postoperative refractive prediction errors,in order to provide reference for clinical work.
RESUMEN
AIM: To investigate the effect of different lens combinations on visual acuity, visual quality and patient satisfaction by comparing mixed implantation of Tecnis Symfony ZXR00(ZXR00)and Tecnis ZMB00(ZMB00)lenses, bilateral implantation of ZMB00 lenses, and bilateral implantation of ZXR00 lenses.METHODS:This retrospective case-control study included 117 patients with cataracts(234 eyes)who underwent phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens(IOLs)implantation from August 2020 to December 2021. The 3 groups included 36 patients(72 eyes)who underwent bilateral implantation of ZXR00(RR group), 37 patients(74 eyes)who underwent bilateral implantation of ZMB00(MM group), and 44 patients(88 eyes)who underwent implantation with a combination of ZXR00 and ZMB00(MR group). The uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA, 5 m), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity(UIVA, 80 cm), uncorrected near visual acuity(UNVA, 40 cm), corrected distance visual acuity(CDVA), defocus curve, stereopsis and VF-14 and QoV visual quality scale of the patients in the three groups were assessed at 3-month follow-up.RESULTS:Bilateral UNVA in the MM and MR group were significantly better than that in the RR group(P<0.05). Bilateral UIVA was the best in the RR group. There were no significant differences in bilateral UDVA, CDVA and stereopsis among the groups(P>0.05). Values for near-stereoscopic acuity at 40 cm were 107.27±80.53, 105.67±83.79, and 108.69±97.66(20-400)arcsec in the MR, MM, and RR groups, respectively(P>0.05). Satisfaction rates exceeded 90% in all groups.CONCLUSION:All groups achieved good distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity and near-stereoscopic vision postoperatively. Mixed implantation with ZXR00 and ZMB00 lenses achieved excellent full-range vision and resulted in high satisfaction. These results may aid in developing individualized clinical treatment plans.
RESUMEN
AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation(PEI)combined with goniosynechialysis(GSL)and goniotomy(GT)under direct vision with gonioscope in the treatment of advanced primary angle-closure glaucoma(PACG)combined with cataract.METHODS: Retrospective case series study. A total of 62 patients(65 eyes)with advanced PACG combined with cataract who were treated in the Second Hospital of Anhui Medical University from December 1, 2021 to March 31, 2023 were enrolled, and they were divided into two groups according to different surgical methods. The control group(32 cases, 33 eyes)received PEI+GSL, whereas the observation group(30 cases, 32 eyes)received PEI+GSL+GT. The intraocular pressure(IOP), best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and the number of anti-glaucoma medications of the two groups before surgery and at 1 d, 1 wk, 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery were evaluated. In addition, the visual field, cup-to-disc ratio(C/D), angle open range, anterior chamber depth, and average thickness of retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL)were evaluated before and 6 mo after surgery.RESULTS: There were significant differences in IOP and lowering range of average IOP at 6 mo between the PEI+GSL+GT group(16.68±2.65, 11.12±8.53 mmHg)and the PEI+GSL group(18.71±2.51, 8.32±4.17 mmHg; P<0.05), and there was no difference in the rate of IOP reduction(44.57%±21.79% and 35.20%±17.94%, P>0.05). The number of anti-glaucoma medications, BCVA, anterior chamber depth, and angle closure range were improved in the two groups at 6 mo after operation(all P<0.01). The number of medication reductions and the range of angle opening at 6 mo after surgery in the PEI+GSL+GT group were significantly higher than those in the PEI+GSL group(P<0.05), and there was no difference in the other indicators between the two groups(all P>0.05). There was no difference in the mean deviation of visual field, C/D and average thickness of RNFL between the two groups at 6 mo after operation compared with those before operation(all P>0.05). The complete surgery success rate of the PEI+GSL+GT group was 81%(26/32), and the conditional success rate was 94%(30/32); while those rates of the PEI+GSL group were 58%(19/33)and 76%(25/33), respectively. There were statistical significance in the success rate of surgery between the two groups(complete success rate χ2=4.275, P=0.039; conditional success rate χ2=4.040, P=0.044). No vision-threatening complications and another surgery occurred in either group.CONCLUSION: The study showed that for patients with advanced PACG with cataract, PEI+GSL+GT is more effective than PEI+GSL.
RESUMEN
AIM: To observe the efficacy of phacoemulsification combined with capsular tension ring and intraocular lens implantation in the treatment of high myopia with cataract.METHODS: Retrospective study. A total of 82 cases(82 eyes)of high myopia complicated with cataract who admitted to the cataract department of our hospital from December 2021 to April 2023 were selected as study objects, and they were divided into control group(n=39)and combination group(n=43)according to whether or not the capsular tension ring was used intraoperatively. Patients in the control group were treated with intraocular lens implantation alone, and those in the combination group were treated with phacoemulsification combined with capsular tension ring and intraocular lens implantation. The preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuity, central anterior chamber depth, trabecular ciliary process, visual quality and complications were compared.RESULTS: At 1 mo after surgery, the best corrected visual acuity(LogMAR)of both groups increased significantly(combination group: 0.64±0.28 vs 0.12±0.14; control group: 0.62±0.26 vs 0.23±0.25, both P<0.001). Central anterior chamber depth in both groups were higher than those before surgery(combination group: 2.57±0.56 vs 1.97±0.40 mm; control group: 2.22±0.45 vs 1.89±0.37 mm; both P<0.001), and the best corrected visual acuity and central anterior chamber depth of the combination group were significantly better than those of the control group(both P<0.05). The distance of trabecular ciliary process showed no statistical significance(combination group: 0.68±0.22 vs 0.74±0.20 mm; control group: 0.74±0.19 vs 0.78±0.17 mm, both P>0.05). The visual quality scores of the combination group were all higher than the control group at 1 mo after surgery [watching TV: 3.00±0.38 vs 2.22±0.46 points; reading books: 2.85±0.42 vs 2.21±0.44 points; night vision: 2.71±0.34 vs 2.37±0.41 points; fine operation: 2.82±0.38 vs 2.33±0.40 points, all P<0.001]. The incidence of complication in the combination group was significantly lower than that of the control group(33% vs 14%, P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification combined with capsular tension ring and intraocular lens implantation can effectively promote the recovery of visual function, improve the structure of chamber angle, and reduce the incidence of complications in the treatment of patients with high myopia and cataract.
RESUMEN
AIM: To explore the effects of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery combined with intraocular lens implantation(FLACS-IOL)on postoperative deviation rate of multifocal intraocular lens(MIOL)and visual quality in cataract patients.METHODS: In the prospective study, 95 patients with cataract(108 eyes)who underwent MIOL implantation in the hospital between January 2021 and December 2022 were enrolled. According to different surgical methods, they were divided into FLACS group(51 cases, 56 eyes)and Phaco group(44 cases, 52 eyes). The operation time, incision diameter of anterior capsule, effective phaco time(EPT), cumulative dissipated energy(CDE), uncorrected distance visual acuity(UCDVA), best corrected distance visual acuity(BCDVA), eccentricity distance of IOL and deviation rate at 3 mo after surgery, total high order aberration(HOA), Trefoil and coma under 3 mm pupil were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: The operation time in the FLACS group was significantly shorter than that in the Phaco group, EPT and CDE were significantly lower than those in the Phaco group(all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in incision diameter of anterior capsule between the two groups(P>0.05). At 1 wk, 3 mo after surgery, UCDVA in the FLACS group was better than that in the Phaco group(all P<0.05). There were significant difference in UCDVA at 1 wk, 3 mo after surgery or BCDVA at 3 mo after surgery between the two groups(P<0.05). At 3 mo after surgery, eccentricity distance of IOL in the FLACS group was shorter than that in the Phaco group, and deviation rate was significantly lower than that in the Phaco group(all P<0.05). Under pupil diameter of 3 mm, HOA, trefoil and coma of whole eyes were decreased in both groups at 3 mo after surgery(P<0.05). At 3 mo after surgery, there were significant differences in HOA and trefoil of whole eyes between the FLACS group and Phaco group(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in coma at 3 mo after surgery(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: FLACS-IOL can effectively reduce deviation rate of IOL and obtain better visual quality in cataract patients.
RESUMEN
AIM: To evaluate the diopter errors and safety of secondary intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in the ciliary sulcus using a modified incision procedure in children with bilateral aphakia.METHODS: The data of 12 children(24 eyes)with bilateral aphakia who had undergone secondary foldable IOL implantation in the ciliary sulcus using a modified incision procedure from 2020 to 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Incision-related complications were analyzed intraoperatively and at 1 d and 1 mo postoperatively. Best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), axial length(AL), white-to-white(WTW), and refractive outcomes in terms of preoperative reserved diopters(PRD)and actual equivalent spherical diopters(AESD). The patients were divided into two groups by age(≤7 and >7 a), AL(<23 and ≥23 mm)and WTW(≤11.5 and >11.5mm), and the diopter errors between their AESD and PRD predicted based on the measurement results were compared.RESULTS: The patients comprised 9(75%)boys and 3(25%)girls. Two(17%)patients had anterior subcapsular cataracts, 4(33%)had posterior polar cataracts, and 6(50%)had nuclear cataracts. The mean age at cataract extraction was 6.4±1.61(3.4-8.9)mo. The mean interval between cataract extraction and secondary IOL implantation was 6.8±1.82(4.4-11.5)a. The mean preoperative BCVA was 0.49±0.33(1.0-0.1)LogMAR. The mean postoperative BCVA was 0.38±0.32(1.0-0.0)LogMAR. The mean AL was 23.56±1.96(19.00-26.38)mm, and the mean WTW was 11.5±0.92(9.3-13.9)mm. The mean PRD was 1.57±0.60(0.73-2.77)D, the mean AESD was 0.57±0.55(-0.50 to 1.75)D, and the mean difference between the AESD and PRD was -0.99±0.52(-2.22 to 0.32)D. The differences in the AESD and PRD between the groups according to age, AL and WTW were not statistically significant(P=0.59, 0.56, and 0.53, respectively).CONCLUSION: IOL implantation in the ciliary sulcus after a modified incision is safe and feasible for children with aphakia. It is necessary to subtract approximately 1 D of IOL power from the formula-selected power when implanting an IOL in the ciliary sulcus. Age, AL, and WTW do not significantly affect the difference.
RESUMEN
Myopia is considered to be a disease occurred under the influence of genetic and environmental factors, and it can only be restored by corrective surgeries. The current surgical methods include laser surgeries and phakic intraocular lens(PIOL)implantation, and PIOL has the advantages of wide range of correction, repeatable procession and small damage to corneal tissue. Furthermore, good visual acuity can be achieved after implantation of intraocular lens. Implantable collamer lens(ICL)is the most common surgical method in this group. The vertical distance between the highest point of the posterior central surface of the implanted lens and the anterior surface of the crystalline lens is called vault. It will cause serious complications if the vault turns out to be abnormal. Up to now, there is no optimal prediction method. This research focuses on vault, discusses the ideal range of postoperative vault, the safety and effectiveness of this surgery, and analyzes the existing prediction methods to provide directions for future clinical research.
RESUMEN
Objective:To observe the unfolding status of foldable acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) of different materials, designs and refractive powers implanted in the capsular bag during cataract surgery, and to investigate its influence on the IOL implantation procedure.Methods:An observational case series study was conducted.A total of 1 005 patients who underwent routine phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in Shaanxi Eye Hospital from February to August 2021 were enrolled.The status and unfolding time of the leading haptic, optical region, and trailing haptic of the IOL in the capsular bag and the surgeon were recorded in real-time intraoperative video.Of the 1 005 IOL implants, 681 were hydrophobic, 324 hydrophilic, 733 C-loop, 272 plate-haptic, 909 single-piece, 96 three-piece, 620 preloaded, and 385 non-preloaded.The differences in unconventional implantation factors and IOL unfolding time were compared.The factors influencing IOL implantation status were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the relevant factors affecting IOL implantation status.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Xi'an People's Hospital (Xi'an Fourth Hospital)(No.20200035). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:There were 14(1.4%) IOLs with unconventional leading haptic status during implantation, including 7 recurved, 4 folded, 2 twisted and 1 straightened.There were 101(10.0%) IOLs with unconventional trailing haptic status during implantation, including 49 stuck in the injector, 40 folded, 10 recurved and 2 broken.There were 22(2.2%) IOLs with overlapped leading and trailing haptic requiring additional separation.There were 4(0.4%) IOLs with reversed optical regions and 2(0.2%) with damaged optical regions.The occurrence rate of unconventional leading haptic status using C-loop IOL was higher than that using plate IOL, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The occurrence rate of unconventional trailing haptic status using hydrophilic, non-preloaded, three-piece, and C-loop IOL was higher than that using hydrophobic, preloaded, single-piece, and plate IOL, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=9.100, 61.400, 81.885, 7.587; all at P<0.05). The 22(2.2%) IOLs with overlapped leading and trailing haptic were hydrophobic.The 4 (0.4%) IOLs with reversed optical region were non-preloaded.The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that IOL material, loading method, design and surgeons were related to the unconventional trailing haptic status in implantation ( OR=9.894, 3.720, 6.810, 1.338; all at P<0.05). The average unfolding time of hydrophobic IOL was 26.12(21.21, 30.91)s, which was significantly longer than 3.03(2.16, 4.49)s of hydrophilic IOL ( Z=-25.603, P<0.05). The average unfolding time of C-loop IOL was 25.53(19.41, 30.25)s, which was significantly longer than 2.70(2.08, 3.69) s of plate IOL ( Z=-23.764, P<0.05). Conclusions:A variety of unconventional statuses of IOL can occur during implantation into the lens capsular bag.The use of hydrophobic, preloaded, single-piece, and plate IOLs can reduce the occurrence of unconventional status.The use of hydrophilic IOLs can reduce the overlap of leading and trailing haptic.The use of preloaded IOLs can reduce the occurrence of IOL optical region reversal.The use of hydrophilic and plate IOLs can shorten the operation time.
RESUMEN
@#With the continuous progress and development of modern surgical equipment, the types of intraocular lens and the continuous improvement of people's requirements for visual quality, cataract surgery has been transformed from traditional vision restoration surgery into a high-quality and high-demand refractive surgery. Piggyback intraocular lens implantation was originally a new surgical method for clinicians to implant two or more posterior chamber intraocular lenses in patients' eyes to correct hyperopia or secondary correction refractive errors after cataract surgery. With the birth and promotion of functional lenses in recent years, this surgical method has been applied to the field of refractive cataract surgery, which expanded the application of functional intraocular lens and achieved good postoperative effect. This review discusses the development and current clinical application of Piggyback intraocular lens implantation, and further expounds its development trend in the future.

RESUMEN
@#AIM: To analyze the effectiveness and influencing factors of phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in the treatment of primary angle-closure glaucoma(PACG). <p>METHODS: Clinical data of 75 patients(75 eyes)with PACG who received phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in our hospital from January 2017 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Postoperative intraocular pressure(IOP), best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), changes of anterior segment and incidence of complications were counted. The patients were grouped by efficacy, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors influencing the effectiveness of phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in patients with PACG. <p>RESULTS: Postoperative IOP of patients with PACG was decreased while BCVA was increased, and there were statistically significant differences compared with those before operation(<i>P</i><0.05). Central anterior chamber depth(ACD), angle opening distance(AOD500), trabecular iris angle(TIA500)and angle recess area(ARA)were increased significantly compared with those before operation(<i>P</i><0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that chronic PACG and preoperative IOP were independent risk factors for efficacy of phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in patients with PACG(<i>P</i><0.05). <p>CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification combined with IOL implantation has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of PACG. However, it is necessary to pay attention to preoperative IOP control. What's more, it should be carefully considered whether this operation is necessary for patients with chronic PACG.

Among them, 98 cases(98 eyes)were combined with CTR implantation(combined group)and 88 cases(88 eyes)were not combined with CTR implantation(control group). The best corrected visual acuity(BCVA, LogMAR), visual quality \〖root mean square value(RMS)of higher-order aberration(HOA)\〗 and corneal endothelial cell density were recorded in the two groups before surgery and at 1, 3 and 6mo after surgery, and the area of anterior capsular orifice and inclination angle of IOL were evaluated at 1, 3 and 6mo after surgery, and the occurrence of complications such as postoperative anterior capsule opacification, posterior capsule opacification and capsular contraction syndrome were compared between the two groups.<p>RESULTS: There were interaction effects in the BCVA between the two groups(<i>P</i><0.05). The BCVA of the two groups after surgery was decreased compared with that before surgery(<i>P</i><0.05), and the BCVA of combined group after surgery was lower than that of control group(<i>P</i><0.05). There were interaction effects in the total HOA RMS(<i>P</i><0.05), and the total HOA RMS of the two groups after surgery was increased compared with that before surgery(<i>P</i><0.05), and the total HOA RMS after surgery in combined group was lower than that in control group(<i>P</i><0.05). There were interaction effects in the anterior capsular orifice area after surgery between the two groups(<i>P</i><0.05), and the area in the two groups was decreased with the prolongation of postoperative time(<i>P</i><0.05), and the area in combined group at 3 and 6mo after surgery was higher than that in control group(<i>P</i><0.05).

The corneal endothelial cell density in the two groups after surgery was lower than that before surgery(<i>P</i><0.05), but there was no interaction effect(<i>P</i> >0.05).<p>CONCLUSION: Phacoemulsification+ IOL implantation + CTR implantation can improve the visual function of patients with high myopia complicated with cataract, with few postoperative complications and good efficacy and safety.
RESUMEN
@#AIM: To analyze the risk factors of corneal edema after phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in patients with cataract. <p>METHODS: The clinical data of 623 patients with cataract(957 eyes)who underwent phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in our hospital between March 2018 and September 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients with corneal edema observed at any time within the first three days after surgery were included in corneal edema group(82 cases, 82 eyes), and patients without corneal edema were enrolled as non-corneal edema group(541 cases, 875 eyes). The preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative related indexes of the two groups were collected and included in Logistic regression model to screen the high-risk factors. <p>RESULTS: Logistics regression analysis showed that age(<i>OR</i>=1.162), Emery lens nuclear hardness grading(<i>OR</i>=1.301)and perfusion time(<i>OR</i>=1.172)were independent risk factors for corneal edema after phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation, and the anterior chamber depth(<i>OR</i>=0.651)were independent protective factors avoiding occurrence(<i>P</i><0.05).<p>CONCLUSION:The factors involved in corneal edema after phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation are complicated in patients with cataract. It is necessary to be vigilant for high-risk patients in clinical practice and take preventive measures during perioperative period so as to promote rapid recovery of prognosis and visual function.

According to the different surgical methods, the patients were divided into two groups, including group A(35 eyes)with treatment of retropupillary iris claw IOL implantation, group B(35 eyes)with treatment of posterior chamber ciliary scleral suture fixed IOL. The uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), intraocular pressure(IOP)and corneal endothelial cell density(CECD)of the two groups were documented and compared before operation and 3d, 1, 3, 6mo and 1a after operation. Furthermore, the stability of IOL in both groups, as well as the intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded.<p>RESULTS: The patients in the present study were followed up for 12 to 14mo. 3d after surgery, UCVA in group A was significantly improved compared with that before surgery(<i>P</i><0.01), while BCVA had no difference compared with that before surgery(<i>P</i>=0.073).UCVA in group B showed no difference(<i>P</i>=0.097), while BCVA was worse(<i>P</i>=0.002). UCVA and BCVA in both groups were significantly elevated 1mo after surgery(<i>P</i><0.05), and remained stable 6, 3mo later,respectively. Furthermore, IOP in both groups remained in normal level during the follow up period, 0.7% and 2.3% reduction of CECD in A group and B gruop was observed at 1a after operation respectively(<i>P</i><0.05). Both IOP and CECD between the two groups have no significant differenc at each time point during the follow up period(<i>P</i>>0.05).There was no significant difference between whole eye astigmatism and corneal astigmatism in A group and B gruop at 1 and 6mo after operation(<i>P</i>>0.05). Additionally, There was 1 case of IOL dislocation in each group after operation, which was further recovered by operation. Significant tilt and deviation of IOL were not observed in the rest of the patients during the follow up period. The other postoperative complications were mild with no difference in complications between the two groups(<i>P</i>>0.05).<p>CONCLUSION: For aphakic eyes without capsular support, both retropupillary iris claw IOL implantation and posterior chamber ciliary scleral suture fixed IOL are safe and effective surgical methods. Retropupillary iris claw IOL implantation has relatively simple operation, lower damage to the eyeball tissue, the shorter operation time, and the quicker recovery of postoperative visual acuity, which is one of the effective clinical treatments.

@#AIM: To investigate the therapeutic effect of 23G vitrectomy system used in children with congenital cataracts.<p>METHODS: From November 2017 to December 2018, 11 children(19 eyes)aged 3-8 years old with congenital cataract were recruited in the Department of Ophthalmology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University. 23G vitrectomy instruments were used to enter the anterior chamber through the incision at the corneal limbus, and complete ring resection of anterior capsule, cataract aspiration, intraocular lens implantation, and ring resection of posterior capsule combined with anterior vitrectomy. The visual acuity, intraocular pressure and ocular conditions of the children were observed during 3-24mo of follow-up.<p>RESULTS: All the surgeries were uneventful. During the surgeries, the anterior chambers were stable, the ring resections of lens capsules were accurate, and the IOLs were implanted at the 1<sup>st</sup> phase. The postoperative visual acuity was significantly improved compared with that before surgery. Only 1 patient had intraocular pressure higher than 25mmHg after surgery, which was controlled within the normal range after medication was given. During the follow-up period, all the children had clear corneas, no anterior chamber hemorrhage, no pupil deformation, the intraocular lens was in the center and the right position, the optic axis was transparent, and no obvious complications occurred.<p>CONCLUSION: The 23G vitrectomy system is safe and effective for the surgery of congenital cataract, it can achieve little trauma, accurate lens capsule resection, little postoperative reaction and few complications.

@#AIM:To observe the effect of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens(IOL)implantation combined with trabeculectomy on the central anterior chamber depth(ACD)and astigmatism of patients with cataract and glaucoma.<p>METHODS:This prospective study included 100 patients(100 eyes)with cataract and glaucoma who were admitted to the hospital between November 2018 and November 2019. The patients were divided into control group(<i>n</i>=50, 50 eyes)and observation group(<i>n</i>=50, 50 eyes)by the random number table method. The control group was treated with phacoemulsification and IOL implantation, while the observation group was treated with phacoemulsification and IOL implantation combined with trabeculectomy. The LogMAR visual acuity, intraocular pressure(IOP), ACD and astigmatism at 1wk, 2wk and 1mo after operation, visual quality, and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups. <p>RESULTS:Compared with preoperative, the ACD of the two groups increased, LogMAR visual acuity and IOP decreased at 1wk, 2wk and 1mo after operation(<i>P</i><0.05). Moreover, the ACD of the observation group at 1wk, 2wk and 1mo after operation were higher than those of the control group, and the LogMAR visual acuity, IOP was lower than that of the control group(<i>P</i><0.05). The astigmatism of the two groups increased at 1,2wk after operation, and obseration group decreased at 1mo after operation(<i>P</i><0.05). Meanwhile, the astigmatism of the observation group was lower than that of the control group(<i>P</i><0.05). At 1mo after operation, the scores of watching TV, reading and writing, and fine operation of the observation group were higher than those of the control group(<i>P</i><0.05). The incidence of complications in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(6% <i>vs </i>22%, <i>P</i><0.05). <p>CONCLUSION:Phacoemulsification and IOL implantation combined with trabeculectomy is markedly effective in the treatment of patients with cataract and glaucoma, which can improve vision and visual quality. Lower intraocular pressure and astigmatism, reduce changes in astigmatism, deepen the central anterior chamber depth, and reduce the incidence of complications.
RESUMEN
Introducción: La cirugía de cataratas tiene como objetivo restablecer la función visual comprometida por la opacificación del cristalino; con el implante del Lente Intraocular se pretende obtener la mejor agudeza visual posible sin corrección adicional. Objetivos: Comparar la exactitud de 8 fórmulas de cálculo de Lentes Intraoculares en la predicción de la refracción postoperatoria con un único dispositivo de biometría óptica en pacientes operados de cirugía de catarata con técnica de facoemulsificación. Materiales y métodos: Serie de casos consecutivos retrospectivos. 100 pacientes fueron sometidos a cirugía de catarata no complicada con de Lente Intraoculares por un único cirujano; del 1 mayo del 2017 al 1 de mayo del 2018; donde la cirugía fue realizada por córnea clara facoemulsificación. En el período preoperatorio todos los pacientes fueron medidos con biometría óptica. La refracción manifiesta se obtuvo al mes de realizada la cirugía. Resultados: La fórmula más precisa y con mejor desempeño general fue PANACEA con un DRA de 0,18 D; cuando consideramos ojos cortos y largos la fórmula Barrett Universal 2 obtuvo menor error de predicción. HAIGIS y LADAS obtuvieron el mejor desempeño en ojos con cámaras estrechas y profundas respectivamente. Conclusión: No se encontraron diferencias en el defecto refractivo absoluto entre las fórmulas tradicionales de tercera generación y las de reciente desarrollo. Algunas fórmulas tuvieron mejor desempeño al considerar ciertas características anatómicas particulares. Es importante personalizar la elección de la fórmula para cada caso específico.
Introduction: Cataract surgery aims to reestablish visual function compromised by lens opacification; Intraocular Lens implantation the aim is to achieve the best visual acuity without additional correction. In recent years, new Intraocular Lens calculation formulas have appeared that could be more accurate than traditional formulas. Objectives: To compare the accuracy of 8 intraocular lens calculation formulas in the prediction of postoperative refraction with a single optical biometry device in patients undergoing cataract surgery with phacoemulsification technique. Materials and methods: Consecutive retrospective case series. Between May 1 2017 and May 1 2018; 100 patients undergo uncomplicated cataract surgery with Intraocular Lens implantation using the phacoemulsification technique. One surgeon did the cases. Optical Biometry was performed using the IOL Master 500 device. Manifest refraction was obtained one month after the surgery. Results: PANACEA was the most accurate formula; with an Absolute Refractive Defect of 0,18 D. When Considering only short and long eyes Barrett Universal 2 got the smallest defect. HAIGIS and LADAS performed better in eyes with narrow and deep anterior chamber respectively. Conclusion: No differences in Absolute Refractive Defect were found between traditional third-generation formulas and those of recent development. Some formulas performed better when considering certain particular anatomical features. It is important to customize the choice of the formula for each specific case.
