Irvin-gass syndrome following phacoemulsification and small incision cataract surgery: A comparitive study

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

The incidence of subclinical macular edema after uneventful cataract surgery has become an issue of safety for this frequent operation It was reported that the incidence of leakage sites was most prominent after 6 weeks There are studies which show increased OCTmeasured foveal thickness following cataract surgery due to subclinical changes of the macular blood retinal barrier BRB in the postoperative periodSpectral domain OCT has been used to measure macular thickness in the present study which was demonstrated to be superior to time domain OCT in the investigation of retinal response to cataract surgery The present study is a prospective interventional study done to evaluate the incidenceKeywordsnbspIRVINGASS syndrome Phacoemulsification Smallincision cataract surgery
