<b>A Case of Photophobia Post Cataract Surgery Successfully Treated </b><b>with the Kampo Formulation Ryokeikansoto </b> / 日本東洋医学雑誌

ABSTRACT

The number of senile eye cataract cases increases year by year. Recent developments in new operation techniques have brought more safety and ease i.e. ultrasonic phacoemulsication and lens replacement. However, some complications of these techniques result in troublesome outcomes. In this paper the authors report a female patient aged 74 years old who suffered from severe photophobia after cataract surgery, which was successfully treated with the Kampo formulation, ryokeikansoto. Such troublesome cases tend to be neglected to in medical journal publications when the background of the complaint is unknown.
