Abstract:AIM: To compare the clinical results of cataract extraction with small incision non-phacoemulsification and phacoemulsification for cataract.
METHODS: Patients were divided into two groups randomly, with 172 eyes of 166 cases in group A and 180 eyes of 175 cases group B, topical anesthesia cataract extraction with small incision non-phacoemulsification or phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation was performed in the two groups, respectively.
RESULTS: There was no significant difference in postoperative visual acuity and corneal astigmatism between the two groups(P>0.05), and no significant difference in the postoperative complication rate between the two groups(P>0.05).
CONCLUSION: Cataract extraction with small incision is a feasible, effective and recommendable approach for cataract surgery.
