Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured in 27 normotensive patients scheduled to undergo uncomplicated extracapsular cataract extraction with insertion of a posterior chamber intraocular lens implant. The measurements were recorded the day before surgery, 3, 6 and 9 hours after surgery and the following morning. Fourteen of the patients had a substantial increase in IOP, to more than 30 mm Hg, on the evening of surgery. Most had normal IOP values the next morning. Ophthalmologists should be aware of this possible effect of extracapsular cataract extraction on IOP. |
