Effects of Topical Combinations of Parasympatholytic and Sympathomimetic Drugs among the Successful Post Dacryocystorhinostomy Patients - A Study
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of our study was to assess the post-operative visual outcome after manual small incision cataract surgery in large scale for 1 year from April 2014 to March 2015. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted on 150 eyes of 75 patients of unilateral nasolacrimal duct obstruction at a tertiary hospital over a period of 2 years (2014–2016). The patients were selected from the out-patient department irrespective of their sex and religion. The age group of the study was 15–50 years. The unaffected eye served as control. Result: The mean value of differences of pupillary diameter between control and post dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) cases in pair 1 was ±1.4000 with standard deviation (SD) of ±0.44120 (P < 0.01) which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The mean value of differences of pupillary diameter between control and post DCR cases in pair 2 was ±1.32000 with SD of ±0.38809 (P < 0.01) which was statistically significant. Conclusion: DCR surgery causes altered nasolacrimal anatomy leading to increased absorption of drugs.
