“…As shown in table 5 in group A (straight incision) at the end of 3 months, maximum number of patients, i.e. 12 had SIA in the range of 1.25-1.50 D followed by 8 patients in the range of 0.75-1.00 D. No (0) patient had SIA in the higher range of 2.25-2.50 D. Our findings were similar to those of Jauhari et al (2014) 11 who also had maximum patients (straight incision) having SIA in the range of 1.25-2D and Jha and Vats (2006) 16 had maximum patients with SIA upto 1D. In group B (frown incision) at the end of 3 months, maximum number of patients, i.e.…”

BACKGROUND Surgically-Induced Astigmatism (SIA) is one of the commonest causes of poor postoperative vision even after uneventful cataract surgery. Recent advances have led to a newer concept of "refractive cataract surgery." The aim of the study is to study the comparison of postop SIA in Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery (MSICS) with straight versus frown incision. MATERIALS AND METHODS 50 patients of cataract were divided into 2 groups (25 each)-group A underwent MSICS with 6 mm straight incision, group B underwent MSICS with 6 mm frown incision. BCVA, keratometry readings were recorded with auto kerato-refractometer preop, at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and SIA was calculated with SIA calculator version 2.1, a free software program. RESULTS Mean SIA in group A and B were-1.14D versus 0.92D at 1 week; 1.26D versus 0.97D at 1 month; 1.29D versus 0.95D at 3 months. The difference was statistically significant at each follow up visit (p<0.05). CONCLUSION Frown incision gives lesser SIA than straight incision in MSICS.

“…In our study frown incision showed slightly higher astigmatism compared to chevron incision. 52% patients here showed <1D astigmatism where maximum were between 0.5-1 D. similar findings were seen in study conducted by Jha and vats 15 which report 85.5% of patients with astigmatism up to 1 D, with only 8.7%cases having astigmatism more than 2 D. similarly another study conducted by jauhari N at al 14 57.9% of patients showed induced astigmatism of <1D. Minimum surgically induced astigmatism with Chevron incision in our study is supported by previous studies of Rohatgi et al 16 and Randeri et al 13 .…”

“…In comparing the results of a study on SICS and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation with the results from the literature on Phaco, it was found that 59 (85.5%) cataract surgery cases achieved BCVA of 6/12 or better, 6 (8.7%) cases had BCVA between 6/18 and 6/24, and 4 (5.8%) cases had BCVA of 6/36 or less (15) at the 6-week follow-up. After the first week of the surgery, postoperative VA of 6/18 or better was observed in 51 (71.9%) SICS cases.…”
