Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate intraocular pressure changes in the early postoperative period after small incision CATARACT surgery.Setting: Farabi Eye Hospital, Tehran University of Medical Science.Methods: This prospective study includes 82 eyes of 82 patients with age-related CATARACT that underwent small incision extracapsular CATARACT extraction by PHACOEMULSIFICATION or PHACOSECTION (manual phaco) surgical techniques.Intraocular pressure was measured by goldman tonometry in all patients preoperatively and then at 6 hours, one day and one week postoperatively. No topical or systemic antiglaucoma medications, were given during the study period.Results: Six hours following surgery mean IOP rise was 8.2±9.4 mmHg in the PHACOEMULSIFICATION group (P<0.001) and 4.1± 7.6 mmHg in the PHACOSECTION group (P=0.002). IOP rise was also significantly different between two groups. (P=0.034).One day postoperatively the mean change was +2.8± 6.1 mmHg in the PHACOEMULSIFICATION group (P= 0.004) and +2.1±5.2 mmHg in the PHACOSECTION group. (P=0.02). At one week there was a mean decrease of -0.5±2.6 mmHg in the PHACOEMULSIFICATION group (P= 0.07) and -2.3±3.7 mmHg in the PHACOSECTION group (P<0.05). The drop in IOP in PHACOSECTION group was greater in comparison to the PHACOSECTION group (P=0.014).Conclusion: Consistent with previous studies, there is a significant IOP rise during the first 24 hours following CATARACT surgery. Our findings suggest a higer rise for PHACOEMULSIFICATION in comparison to PHACOSECTION technique at one week. IOPs tend to drop to levels less than preoperative values in both groups but the decrease in IOP was significantly greater in the PHACOSECTION group.
