Abstract EN
Objective.
To compare patient’s satisfaction level in performing routine activities during daylight and night vision after implantation with rigid, foldable, or rollable posterior chamber intraocular lens implants in uneventful cataract surgery.
Design.
Retrospective, cross-sectional.
Place and Duration of Study.
PNS SHIFA Hospital, Karachi, from Nov.
2009 to Nov.
2010.
Methodology.
91 cataract surgery patients who had uneventful phacoemulsification, within the bag placement of intraocular lens and achieved best corrected visual acuity 6/9 or better were included in the study.
Patients who developed postoperative complications were excluded.
A specially designed questionnaire was used to assess patient’s satisfaction level of vision for those who underwent cataract surgery at least 3 months ago.
Finally, they were categorized into five groups ranging from “very good” to “very poor.” SPSS version 16 was used to analyze the results.
Results.
There was a difference in satisfaction level between three groups.
Vision was good in the day and the night with foldable posterior chamber intraocular lens implants.
Conclusion.
It was concluded that visual satisfaction level of patients who had foldable posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation was better during the day and night as compared to patients who had rigid or rollable posterior chamber intraocular lenses implantation.
