“…The significant relationship between poor vision and a capsule complication remained unchanged in our study when cases with macular degeneration were excluded (data not shown). The presence of glaucoma in the surgery eye has been related to a capsule complication by others, 17 in line with our finding. The term glaucoma involves previous filtrating surgery, small pupils, and increased rate of pseudoexfoliation, all of which are determinants of a capsule break.…”

This study evaluated the prevalence of intraoperative complications of cataract surgery for the first time in Tehran Province. The prevalence of complications was high in this study. To achieve the goals of the Vision 2020 Initiative and improve surgical quality, it is necessary to minimize complication rates. Factors to note for decreasing complication rates include type of surgery, surgeon experience, and patient age.

“…Weakness of the zonular fibers, spontaneous lens subluxation, poor pupillary dilatation and phacodonesis can be present in eyes with PXF. Therefore, in patients with coexisting cataract and PXF glaucoma, cataract surgery alone or combined cataract and glaucoma filtering surgery is expected to be associated with a higher incidence of intraoperative complications, most notably zonular dialysis, vitreous loss, and dislocation of the lens [1,7,14,17,22,24].…”
