Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the change trend of angle Kappa after intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in cataract patients and its relationship with IOL stability.METHODS: A total of 120 patients(120 eyes)with cataract who received IOL implantation in our hospital from February 2023 to January 2024 were selected as the research objects, including 56 left eyes and 64 right eyes. The results of ophthalmic examination, the distribution of angle Kappa, the changes of angle Kappa and the stability of IOL at different time points before and after operation were compared. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the correlation between IOL rotational stability and ophthalmic examination indexes. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between angle Kappa and IOL stability.RESULTS: After surgery, angle Kappa decreased and the degree of decrease decreased gradually(all P<0.05), and the IOL rotation degree also decreased gradually(P<0.05). The degree of IOL rotation at 2 mo after surgery was positively correlated with axial length(AL), lens thickness(LT), horizontal keratometer(K1), vertical keratometer(K2), pupil diameter(PD)and angle Kappa at 1 d after surgery(all P<0.05), and negatively correlated with anterior chamber depth(ACD)at 1 d after surgery(all P<0.05). AL, ACD, PD and angle Kappa had significant effects on IOL rotation degree(all P<0.05). With the increase of angle Kappa, the degree of IOL rotation gradually increased, that is, the stability of IOL gradually decreased(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Angle Kappa decreased significantly after IOL implantation in cataract patients, and then tended to be stable. The stability of IOL decreased with the increase of angle Kappa.
