Journal Title: Ophthalmology and Allied Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

The present study included 200 cases. In this 6% in superior scleral incision showed up same level of astigmatism 82% patients showed astigmatism <1.00D in temporal group as compared to 48% in the superior sclearal group.
