dc.description.abstract | Purpose: To investigate macular thickness changes after uneventful cataract surgery performed with phacoemulsification method using optical coherence tomography. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was carried out on 30 eyes of 30 patients (15 men, 15 women, mean age 62.63±7.15 years) who underwent phacoemulsification surgery. A complete ophthalmic examination and OCT were performed to all patients preoperatively and at 1 month, 3 month, and 6 month postoperatively. The obtained data were statistically evaluated. Results: The mean values of preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuity were statistically different (p<0.01). The mean values of preoperative and postoperative intraocular pressure were not statistically different (p>0.05). Mean macular thickness and central macular thickness measurements were performed before surgery and postoperatively at month 1,3,6. Preoperative mean macular thickness was not statistically different from postoperative 1 month mean macular thickness (p=0.09). There was no difference in mean macular thickness between OCT measurements preoperative and postoperative at 1 month, while mean macular thickness at 3 month and 6 month were significantly higher than properative values(p=0.006 and 0.007 respectively). Central macular thickness values were not different preoperatively and postoperative at month 1,3, and 6, by OCT examinations. Conclusion: Macular thickness changes were detected after phacoemulsification surgery. To detect pathologic conditions which come from these changes further studies required. © 2015 Gazi Eye Foundation. All Rights Reserved. | en_US |
