ABSTRACT

AIM: To evaluate the clinical effects of dual-incision phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation combined with trabeculectomy in cataract and glaucoma patients. METHODS: To observe the visual acuity, intraocular pressure and complications for 3-12mo after surgery as a retrospective study of 65 patients ( 70 eyes ) with cataract and glaucoma. RESULTS: The visual acuity of 2 eyes was lower than 0.1, 6 eyes were ranged from 0. 1 to 0. 3, 60 eyes were from 0. 4 to 0. 8, 2 eyes were over 1. 0. The postoperative intraocular pressure of 26 eyes were effective controlled. The postoperative shallow anterior chamber occurred in 1 eye. CONCLUSION: It is an ideal treatment to take dual-incision phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation combined with trabeculectomy in cataract and glaucoma patients and it shows better effects than normal operation method.
