METHODS: Retrospective analysis of 95 cases(107 eyes)cataract patients treated in our hospital, and all patients were given 3.2mm clear corneal incision Phaco combined with IOL implantation. The postoperative visual acuity, corneal curvature, corneal astigmatism, anterior chamber depth and complications were observed.

RESULTS: Postoperative 3d, 1wk, 1mo patients with the uncorrected visual acuity(0.16±0.06, 0.15±0.05, 0.14±0.04)were significantly better than preoperative(0.48±0.15). The anterior chamber depth(3.86±1.09, 3.69±1.04, 3.84±1.07mm)was significantly higher than the preoperative(2.71±0.88mm)(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in corneal curvature and corneal astigmatism before operation. There was no difference in surgical astigmatism after operation(P>0.05).

CONCLUSION: 3.2mm clear corneal incision Phaco combined with IOL implantation can effectively improve the recovery of postoperative visual acuity and reduce the corneal astigmatism, and it is a safe and effective surgical treatment of cataract.
