Comparison of Visual Outcomes and Complications of Phacoemulsification with Intraocular Lens Implantation between Nanophthalmos and Normal Eyes.

Completed
Conditions
anophthalmic patient and normal control eyes with cataract who underwent phacoemulsification with IOLs implantation in ophthalmology training center between 2014 and 2020.

Brief Summary

There were no significant differences in age and IOP among 2 groups. shorter axial length, shallower ACD and lower baseline BCVA were found in nanophthalmos. Mean postoperative BCVA statistically improved by 0.78 logMAR in nanophthalmos. Higher SE errors were observed in nanophthalmos compared to control eyes. Six nanophthalmos (37.5%) experienced post-operative complications which were corneal edema, iris injury, uveal effusion and postoperative inflammation compared to 3 eyes (6%) in control eyes.
