Magnitude of Change in the Intraocular Pressure and Anterior Chamber Depth After Uneventful Phacoemulsification Cataract Surgery

Abstract

In 2010 study conducted by I Dooley et al on Changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) and anterior segment morphometry after uneventful phacoemulsication cataract surgery concluded that mean anterior chamber depth (ACD) and IOP showed a statistically signicant increase and decrease respectively after an uneventful cataract surgery. Also in a number of prior studies the above mentioned relationship is 2,3,4 established . So here in our study we are trying to prospectively investigate the above mentioned parameters and trying to nd out the correlation of ACD and IOP before and after an uneventful phacoemulsication cataract surgery
