Resumen
GARCIA-CHAVEZ, Jessica P. et al. Ultrasound biomicroscopy and stability of intraocular lens in patients with myopia after phacoemulsification cataract surgery. Cir. cir. [online]. 2023, vol.91, n.1, pp.107-112. Epub 16-Mayo-2023. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.21000720.
Purpose:
To evaluate the stability and the refractive error of the different intraocular lens (IOL) after cataract surgery.
Method:
Retrospective, observational and single-center study. Patients diagnosed with cataract and myopia who underwent a phacoemulsification surgery with intraocular lens placement without complications were included. All patients underwent a complete ophthalmological examination, ultrasound biomicroscopy was performed at 2 weeks, 1 and 3 months after surgery. Descriptive statistics were performed using measures of central tendency and comparative analyzes. A value of p < 0.05 was considered significant.
Results:
Thirty-one subjects with a diagnosis of axial myopia and senile cataract were included, 20 women (64.5%) and 11 men (35.5%), with a mean age was 62.8 ± 13.14 years. The IOL displacement were not different for the upper, lower, temporal and nasal quadrants; however, we observed a tendency to inclination to the temporal sector (p = 0.054) between the first and third postoperative month. Therefore, the were no significant differences in spherical equivalent between groups postoperatively.
Conclusions:
The inclination of the IOL did not change over time after surgery, the changes were similar with the different three types of IOL.
