The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the impact of different scleral incision types straight, frown, and chevron on visual outcomes and surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) in patients undergoing manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS). By analyzing the postoperative visual acuity and changes in corneal curvature, the study aims to determine which incision geometry offers the most favorable outcomes in terms of minimizing astigmatism and optimizing visual recovery. This is particularly relevant for resource limited settings where access to postoperative refractive correction is often restricted.
Safety,Efficacy
"1- Surgically Induced Astigmatism (SIA):
- Quantified by the difference in keratometric values pre- and postoperatively.
- Compared across the three incision types (straight, frown, chevron).
2- Postoperative Visual Acuity:
- Uncorrected Visual Acuity (UCVA) and Best-Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) at 30 days post-surgery.
- Used to assess functional visual recovery."
