An overview of complications of MSICS
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Introduction Taking into consideration the wide spectrum of complications that follow MSICS and their influence on visual outcome a sincere effort has been made in this study to critically analyze the incidence and the nature of various intraoperative early and late postoperative complications among the total number of cataract extraction carried outMaterials and Methods A Prospective observational study of 500 cases that had undergone MSICS after a thorough preoperative ocular evaluation including detailed history and clinical examination and these cases were studied for a period of 2 years and all the intraoperative early and late postoperative complications were notedResults The commonest intraoperative complications were premature entry with iris prolapse 5 followed by zonular dialysis 3 commonest early post operative complications were SK 20 and corneal edema 17 and the commonest late post operative complications were PCO18 followed by astigmatism in 9 of the casesConclusion SICS gives best corrected postoperative visual acuity of 66 or 69 in a greater proportion of patients and it has all the inherent advantages of the sutureless cataract surgery in terms of universal applicability greater wound stability lesser complications and early visual rehabilitationKeywords Cataract surgery Complications of MSICS MSICS Phacoemulsification
