Visual and Refractive Results of Cataract Surgery by Phacoemulsification Method in Patients with Keratoconus
To examine the visual and refractive results of cataract surgery by phacoemulsification method in patients with keratoconus.
In this retrospective study, the files of patients with keratoconus, who underwent phacoemulsification between 2008 and 2017, were evaluated. The intraocular lens power calculation formula was SRK/T. Post-operative visual and refractive results were analyzed.
A total of 36 eyes of 24 patients with the mean age of 61.2±8.7 (range: 42-73) were included. The mean post-operative spherical equivalent of refractive error significantly reduced (p<0.001). The mean pre- and post-operative cylinders showed no statistical significant difference (P=0.096). The mean corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) significantly improved (P<0.001). The mean pre-operative keratometry obtained from biometry or topography showed no statistical significant difference (P=0.506).
Cataract surgery in patients with keratoconus and cataract, and intraocular lens power calculation, using SRK/T formula, have optimal results.
