Purpose
Assessment of impact of phacoemulsiifcation surgery on endothelial cell count and central cornela thichkness change with low/physiological intraoperative pressure.
Setting
Drishti Eye Foundation, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, India
Prakash Netralaya, Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, India
Methods
100 patients with age group 50-70 years with not comorbiditiesy, all operated on Centurion vision system with active sentry. All patients were divided into two groups 'A' and 'B'. 50 operated with 50 mmHg IOP and 50 with 20 mmHg IOP. Grade moderate with health cornea. Follow up done on 1st POD, 1st week, 2nd week and 4th week.
Parameters- Group A - 20 mmHg IOP Torsional power (10-70 continuous), AFR (30 fixed), vacuum (500 fixed).
Group B - 50 mmHg IOP Torsional power (10-70 continuous), AFR (30 fixed), vacuum (500 fixed)
Results
In group A no significant change was observed in CCT and specular count.
In group B significant change was observed in CCT and specular count as compared to group A.
Conclusions
Lopw/physiological IOP surgery is more friendly to ocular tissues like central corneal thickness and specular count.
