Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study will compare cataract patients before and after phacoemulsification. Evaluations will be performed before and 1 and 3 months following cataract surgery, including parameters of dry eye syndrome and MGD. Dry eye syndrome parameters included TBUT, Schirmer's test type I, Oxford staining score, and the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) Questionnaire. MGD parameters consisted of lipid layer thickness (LLT), lid margin abnormality, meibum quality, meibum expressibility, MG orifice obstruction, MGD stage, and MG dropout.
