Abstract:
AIM:To study the changes of tear film and ocular surface after the coaxial incision 2.5mm and 3.0mm in the phacoemulsification.METHODS: Seventy patients (92 eyes) from February 2015 to February 2016 in our hospital were enrolled.The patients were randomly divided into two groups.Thirty-four patients (46 eyes) in Group A: coaxial 2.5mm incision phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens(IOL) implantation.Thirty-six patients (46 eyes) in Group B: the conventional coaxial 3.0mm small incision phacoemulsification cataract extraction and IOL implantation.The break up time (BUT),Schirmer`s Ⅰ test (SⅠt) and lid-parallel conjunctival folds (LIPCOF) were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively.RESULTS: At 1wk,1 and 3mo postoperatively,the BUT in two groups decreased after operations,and the BUT of Group B was significantly lower than those of Group A,the differences were statistically significant (t=3.089,4.497,4.322;all P<0.05).The SⅠt in two groups increased after operations,the SⅠt of Group B was significantly higher than those of Group A and the differences were statistically significant (t=-6.286,-3.992,-3.278;all P<0.05).The LIPCOF score in two groups increased after operations,the LIPCOF score of Group B was significantly higher than those of Group A and the differences were statistically significant (t=-6.552,-5.131,-3.652;all P<0.05).At 6mo postoperatively,compared with the preoperative data,the BUT,SⅠt and LIPCOF score in Group A showed no statistically significant differences (t=0.646,0.551,0.165;P>0.05).The BUT,SⅠt and LIPCOF score in Group B showed statistically significant differences (t=-4.059,3.629,4.211;all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Ocular surface has less damage and tear film has little influence at early stage after the coaxial 2.5mm incision phacoemulsmcation,compared with the conventional coaxial 3.0mm incision phacoemulsification surgery.
