Abstract

Background: Cataract is a current disease and the most common cause of decreased vision and blindness in the world. Currently, no other treatment option except surgery is available for cataract. We aimed to study the trend of FREQUENCY of ACQUIRED CATARACT surgery and its risk factors among residents of ISFAHAN, IRAN, admitted in Feiz hospital in 5 years.Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive analytic study performed in 2012 on all of the residents of ISFAHAN had come to Feiz hospital for cataract surgery from 2007 to 2011. The trend of FREQUENCY of ACQUIRED CATARACT surgery in 5 years was studied. In addition, 1155 samples were systematically selected from enrolled patients and studied by age, sex, smoking, diabetes and trauma.Findings: 29558 patients, of them 16491 were residents of ISFAHAN, were studied. 99.08% had ACQUIRED CATARACT. FREQUENCY of ACQUIRED CATARACT surgery among maintains patients have had the constant trend. Among 1155 cases that were studied by age, sex, smoking, diabetes and trauma, 98.4% were 40 years old and elder. 50.3% were women. 20.9% of these patients were diabetics, 14.9% were smoker and 1.8% had history of trauma.Conclusion: According to the results of this investigation, the relative FREQUENCY of ACQUIRED CATARACT surgery during 2007 till 2012 had no significant differences but due to a limitation of the study to one center, similar studies need to be performed in other centers. FREQUENCY of trauma and smoking in selected sample group had increasing trend in 5 years. So, we should consider some preparations to decrease the number of trauma (especially caring safety rules in the workplace) and smoking.
