AIM: To assess the patient-reported outcome of phacoemulsification with posterior chamber single focus foldable intraocular lens (SIOL) using the Chinese version of Catquest-8SF questionnaire (Catquest-8SF-CN), evaluate the applicability of Catquest-8SF scale in northern Chinese and its sensitivity to cataract surgery. METHODS: Prospective clinical case follow-up study. The patients were recruited from the Central Hospital of Tai’an and completed the Catquest-8SF questionnaire by face-to-face interviews before and 3mo after surgery at the hospital. RESULTS: A total of 120 cataract patients with median age 67.6y and 52.5% female completed the Catquest-8SF. The Cronbach’s α coefficient of the total scale, daily-activity sub-table and comprehensive-evaluation sub-table were 0.861, 0.853 and 0.748 respectively. There was a high level of consistency between two investigators. The cumulative contribution rate was 66.64% by using the principal component analysis and the maximum variance orthogonal rotation method. The preoperative score of the Catquest-8SF-CN had a significant negative correlation with preoperative binocular mean weighted visual acuity and age (P<0.05), while a significant positive correlation with education level (F=6.094, P<0.001). The patients without systemic comorbidities got higher score than those who with (P<0.05). Three months after surgery, 102 (85%) patients came for follow-up and completed the questionnaire. Significant improvement of visual acuity was observed in both binocular and monocular surgery groups (t=10.404, P<0.001). There was higher improvement in binocular weighted visual acuity of binocular surgery group than in monocular surgery group (t=-20.77, P<0.001). The postoperative score was significantly higher in both groups than before (P<0.001). There was a significant improvement in the total score after cataract surgery. The 94 patients (92.2%) were very satisfied or satisfied with the operation; 92 patients (90.2%) thought the surgery achieved their expectations, and they all felt satisfactory. The degree of satisfaction was significantly correlated with the improvement score of the scale and it was also correlated with their expectation of the surgery. CONCLUSION: The Chinese version of Catquest-8SF questionnaire is suitable for the age-related cataract population in northern China. It is highly responsive to cataract surgery and brief, so it may have the potential to become part of a routine clinical assessment for cataract surgery in China. The patient’s overall satisfaction is high, which illustrates that the medical service we provide matches the patient’s needs. The degree of satisfaction was significantly correlated with the improvement score of the scale and it was also correlated with their expectation of the surgery.

Aim: To compare surgical parameters and visual outcomes of coaxial microincision cataract surgery (MICS) with standard phacoemulsification. Methods: A prospective randomized study was conducted on 60 eyes of 60 patients with age-related uncomplicated cataract who underwent: standard phacoemulsification surgery (30 eyes) i.e., Group 1, or coaxial MICS (30 eyes) i.e., Group 2. Intraoperative parameters were mean effective phacoemulsification power (EPP), effective phacoemulsification time (EPT), and total volume of balanced salt solution (BSS) used. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) were evaluated pre- and postoperatively. Results: Mean BCVA at 6 weeks was 0.04 ± 0.07 in Group 1 and 0.05 ± 0.08 in Group 2. No significant difference was observed in SIA between the two groups. Mean EPT was 29.80 ± 3.67 seconds in Group 1 and 31.93 ± 4.08 seconds in Group 2. The mean total EPP in Group 1 was 35.77 ± 5.17%, whereas it was 33.70 ± 3.05% in Group 2. There was a significant statistical difference between mean EPP and EPT in the two groups. Mean total BSS volume used in Group 1 was 128.83 ± 19.81 ml, whereas it was 139.33 ± 13.57 ml in Group 2. Conclusion: Although EPT and BSS volume used were significantly higher in coaxial MICS, the postoperative results of the two techniques were comparable.

Cataract surgery is no more a blind rehabilitation surgery, it absolutely gives normal vision. In the era of modern cataract surgery patients expectations are also high about visual outcome. This prospective study was carried out to investigate the magnitude and pattern of pre-existing corneal astigmatism in age related cataract patient at Faridpur Medical College Hospital, Faridpur and Agha Yusuf Adhunik Hospital, Kustia, from July 2009 to June 2012. We examined 850 eyes of 730 patients who underwent cataract surgery. The mean age at the time of surgery was 61.9±8.1 (40 to 70) years. Corneal astigmatism was measured by Auto Refracto Keratometer at least two times for each patient. Astigmatism was calculated from diopteric difference of vertical reading from horizontal reading. With the rule (WTR) astigmatism was considered when steep meridian at 90°± 20°. Against the rule (ATR) astigmatism was considered when steep meridian at 180°±20°. Astigmatism is in other direction is defined as oblique. On keratometry, when vertical reading (k1) was found greater than horizontal (k2) was considered WTR astigmatism and the reverse reading for ATR astigmatism. The percentage of corneal astigmatism was 1D or less was 69.6%, more than 1D and less than 1.5D, 27.6% and more than 1.5D and less then 2D 2.8%. Prevalence of ATR astigmatism was more than WTR astigmatism and prevalence of ATR astigmatism increases significantly with age. Approximately two third of pre-operative patient had 1D or less astigmatism and one third had more than 1D corneal astigmatism. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/fmcj.v8i1.16887 Faridpur Med. Coll.

Introduction: Cataract is most common cause of curable blindness worldwide and cataract surgery is most common procedure performed in ophthalmology. Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is most common complication after cataract surgery which is usually treated with Neodymium-doped: Yttrium Garnet (Nd:YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy or occasionally with a surgical capsulotomy. The incidence and severity of PCO correlates to the type of surgical technique, IOL optic edge designs and IOL materials. Material and Methods: 70 eyes of 64 patients operated for age related cataract were studied in this prospective interventional study. Phacoemulsification was done in 35 eyes and SICS in 35 eyes with hydrophobic single piece biconvex foldable intraocular lens. Patients were followed up at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months for the development of PCO. Clinically significant PCO (loss of 2 or more lines of Snellen’s visual acuity chart) was treated with Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy. Results: The overall incidence of PCO was 22.85%. Amongst the patients who developed PCO, SICS and phacoemulsification was performed in 62.5% and 37.5% patients respectively. Result was statistically significant with p value <0.05 using z test. On first postoperative day, patients operated with phacoemulsification had better visual acuity than SICS. Conclusion: Phacoemulsification can provide early and better visual outcome than SICS and has lower incidence of PCO formation which may be due to difference in irrigation and aspiration and less disruption of blood aqueous barrier than SICS. PCO can be reduced by atraumatic surgery and thorough cortical clean up and capsular polishing.

Purpose.To determine the prevalence of age-related eye diseases and cataract surgery among older adults in the city of Lodz, in central Poland.Material and Methods.The study design was cross-sectional and observational study. A total of 1107 women and men of predominantly Caucasian origin were successfully enumerated and recruited for the study. All selected subjects were interviewed and underwent detailed ophthalmic examinations.Results.Overall 8.04% (95% CI 6.44–9.64) subjects had cataract surgery in either eye. After excluding subjects with bilateral cataract surgery, the prevalence of cataract was 12.10% (95% CI 10.18–14.03). AMD was found in 4.33% (95% CI 3.14–5.54 ) of all subjects. Of them 3.25% (95% CI 2.21–4.30 ) had early AMD and 1.08% (95% CI 0.47–1.69) had late AMD. Various types of glaucoma were diagnosed in 5.51% (95% CI 4.17–6.85) of subjects and 2.62% (95% CI 1.68–3.56) had OHT. The prevalence rates of DR and myopic macular degeneration were 1.72% (95% CI 0.95–2.48) and 0.45% (95% CI 0.06–0.85), respectively. All multiple logistic regression models were only significantly associated with older age. The highest rate of visual impairment was observed among subjects with retinal diseases.Conclusions.The study revealed high prevalence of age-related eye diseases in this older population.
