Abstract | Cataract surgery using current phacoemulsification techniques offers a number of attractive benefits to both the surgeon and patient. The principal advantage is a smaller incision size, which decreases the amount of tissue injury, reduces the amount of postoperative pain and inflammation, and provides a more rapid refractive stabilisation with less astigmatism induced by the procedure. The smaller incision also allows minimal restriction on the patient's physical activities, even in the early postoperative period. | |
