Abstract
Introduction: To study the incidence, visual outcomes, andanterior segment anatomical outcomes of intraoperativecomplications of cataract surgery.Materials and Methods: This is a prospective observationalhospital-based study conducted in the department ofOphthalmology SRMS IMS, Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh. Inthis study, 70 patients were studied for 1.5 yrs from 1st ofNovember 2019 to 13th of April 2021. All these patients withintraoperative complications were evaluated preoperatively andpost-operatively for vision and anterior segment anatomicaloutcomes.Results: In this study, the commonest intraoperativecomplication was Injury to Iris/ Iridodialysis (52.9%). Basedon pre-operative vision, the patients had 5/60 and 6/36 visionwith 30.0%, each followed by 6/24 (14.3%) and 3/60 (12.9%).Corneal hazy/edema was reduced to 10.0% at one-monthfollow-up from 52.9% on post-operative day one. Also, DMfolds were reduced to 11.4% from 75.7% at day one.Conclusions: In this study, visual outcome of the cataractsurgery was much better, and there is a significant progressionin the visual acuity. Routine monitoring of the visual outcomeof the cataract surgery at each hospital would go in long-wayto enhance both the quantity and quality of the surgery andthus decrease the substantial amount of burden of blindnesson our country.
