VALUES OF SURGICALLY INDUCED ASTIGMATISM AFTER PHACOEMULSIFICATION DEPENDING ON THE IOP AND CORNEA RIGIDITY

Kolomiets V. O., Dmytriiev S. K., Lazar Yu. M.

Odessa, Ukraine

Values of surgically induced astigmatism after phacoemulsification with IOL implantation in patients with cataract were investigated.

It was established that after phacoemulsification with IOL implantation the value of surgically induced astigmatism was in the range from 0.04 D to 3.76 D.

Surgically induced astigmatism after phacoemulsification with IOL implantation depends not only on the incision size and location. It also depends on anatomical-functional parameters of the eye among which it is possible to distinguish the degree of preoperative corneal astigmatism, corneal rigidity, IOP value as well as patient's age.
