Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 11

Abstract

This comparative study was carried at Liaquat University Eye Hospital of Liaquat University of Medical and health Sciences/ Jamshoro, Pakistan from 30/03/2011 to 29/03/2013 to compare visual outcome between Foldable and Rigid intraocular lens implantation in Phacoemulsification and to determine how Phacoemulsification with Foldable intraocular lens is more effective and preferred method of choice than Phacoemulsification with Rigid Polymethylmethacrylate intraocular lens. All patients included in the study had cataract with no evidence of any other disease. Mean age of the patient was 56.69 ±8.95 years. Most of the patients were male, i.e. 58%. Mean and standard deviation of measure of preoperative and post-operative Astigmatism on 1st day, 1st month, 3rd month and 6 month was found to be 0.84±0.42 D, 0.56±0.40 D, 0.57±0.38 D, 0.65±0.46 D and 0.71±0.48 D respectively. Friedman two way ANOVA was applied to measure the effect of postoperative Astigmatism on 1st day, 1st month, 3rd month and 6th month which shows that there is a significant difference found in the measurement of effect of postoperative Astigmatism on 1st day, 1st month, 3rd month and 6 month (P-Value 0.001).
