Study of comparison of postoperative astigmatism in small incision cataract surgery depending on size and shape of incision A prospective study of 50 eyes of 50 patients who underwent manual SICS under local anaesthesia between December 2020 and May 2021 conducted by single surgeon and followed up on post op day 1 day 7 and 6 weeks. Patients selected were having grade 1 to 2 nuclear sclerosis the size and shape of incision was decided depending upon the grade of cataract. On follow ups thorough ocular examination was done especially looking for corrected visual acuity and correction needed for that. Keratometry was done in each follow up visits. At the end surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) was calculated. Surgically Induced Astigmatism (SIA) calculated by SIA calculator SIA was 0.5 - 1 D in 38 patients with frown incision of 4 to 5mm,1.0 - 1.5 D in 10 patients with frown incision size of 5 to 6mm 2D in patients with straight incision size of 6mm and more In all cases. The less average SIA was noted in group with smaller incision of about 4 to 5mm. Frown superior incision has got added advantage of early wound stabilization than straight incision. It is possible to reduce the amount of post-operative astigmatism significantly by choosing the incision shape and size.
Fantasy fiction is an extremely popular genre that acts as easy and interesting reading material, also mostly acquired by parents or peers as a gift. Its availability may also be promoted by local bookstores or the School library. It has been shown by multiple studies that media that display violence adversely affects the mental health of children. Unlike movies and films, there is no censorship associated with literature. This article is designed to elaborate upon these effects. The media referred to in this article is print media. A large amount of research is focused largely on visual media like television, digital games as well as films. However, the way by which violent acts are projected on the psychology of children through print media still remains to be comprehensively researched. The genre of print media referred to in this article is popular fantasy fiction. This particular genre of fiction is vastly popular and conveniently available to children. The study includes primarily adolescents and early teenagers in the age group 10 years to 16 years. The consumption of media violence through fantasy fiction during the early and impressionable years has been known to predict aggression, aggressive behaviour and stress among children, especially when the children under study are school-going. It also may most likely result in facing peer rejection and socially unwanted consequences. The context of the “General Aggression Model” or GAM is a complex and multifactorial concept that forms the basis of the findings. The purpose of the study is to validate and create a clear awareness about the effect of short-term as well as the long- term exposure of violence, on young children who are of an impressionable mindset. The study also aims to propose some measures of intervention that may be undertaken to reduce the effects of this exposure that lead to aggression and stress, which could be of a long lasting nature. The finding and outcomes of the study undertaken through the data analysis clearly supports its objectives.
