Abstract

Purpose: To investigate current trends in cataract surgery in Turkey in 2003. Materials and Methods: In 2004, Turkish Ophthalmology Society Cataract and Refractive Surgery deparment, prepared a questionnary (11 multiple choice, totally 16 questions) and asked for ophthalmologists to participate in national congress and spring symposium. Results: 280 questionnaries (5 were received by internet) evaluated. The question about the amount of avarage cataract surgery in 2003 was answered by 263 participants and totally 47873 cataract surgeries performed. The avarage cataract surgery amount was 182 (181.98±193.79) (0-1230). 73.7% (35322 procedures) phacoemulsification, 22.8% 10927 procedures) planned extracapsuler cataract extraction, 2.2% 1055 procedures) manuel small incision extraxapsuler cataract surgery, and 1.1% (569 procedures) intracapsuler cataract extraction. The visual acuity level for cataract surgery decision was 0.3 and worse Snellen lines by 39.5%, 0.5 and worse Snellen lines by 35.9%, 0.3 and worse Snellen lines but if there is professional necessity, the visual acuity level is not important by 0.7%, 0.5 and worse Snellen lines but if there is professional necessity, the visual acuity is not important by 0.7%. 22.9% did not care visual acity level for cataract decision. The retrobulbar anesthesia was the most performed anesthesia (34.2%), 53.8% used sutures . Peroperatively, posterior capsule perforation and postoperatively corneal edema was the leading complication. 67.6% used subconjunctival antibiotic postoperatively but 87.8% did not prefer intracamaral antibiotic. Conclusion: This is the first cataract survey in Turkey. Phacoemulsification is the most popular method for cataract surgery. 0.3 or worse Snellen line visual acuity is needed for decision to surgery and postoperatively antibiotic use preferred.

Özet

Amaç: İkibin üç yılında Türkiye’de katarakt cerrahisi tercihlerinin belirlenmesi. Gereç ve Yöntem: İkibin dört yılında, Türk Oftalmoloji Derneği (TOD) Katarakt ve Refraktif Cerrahi Birimi tarafından hazırlanan 11’i çoktan seçmeli, toplam 16 sorudan oluşan anket formu, Ulusal Kongre ve Bahar Sempozyumu’nda katılımcılara dağıtılmış, cevaplanan formlar değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Beş tanesi internet üzerinden cevaplanarak gönderilmiş, toplam 280 form değerlendirmeye alındı. İkiyüz altmış üç (%93.9) katılımcı 2003 yılında yaptığı katarakt ameliyatı sayısı ile ilgili soruyu cevaplandırmış ve toplam 47873 ve ortalama 182 (181.98±193.79) (0-1230) katarakt ameliyatı gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bunların; %73.7 (35322 adet)’ü fakoemülsifikasyon (FAKO), %22.8 (10927 adet)’i planlanmış ekstrakapsüler katarakt ekstraksiyonu (PEKKE), %2.2 (1055 adet)’si manuel küçük kesili ekstrakapsüler katarakt cerrahisi (Mininuc) ve %1.1 (569 adet)’i intrakapsüler katarakt ekstraksiyonu (İKKE) şeklindedir. Katılımcıların %39.5’i katarakt için Snellen Eşeline göre 0.3 ve altı vizyonu yeterli görürken, %35.9’u 0.5 ve altı, %0.7’si 0.3 ve altı ama mesleki gereklilik varsa vizyon önemli değil, %0.7’si 0.5 ve altı ama mesleki gereklilik varsa vizyon önemli değil, %22.9’u ise vizyonun önemli olmadığını belirtmiştir. En çok retrobulber anestezi tercih edilmiştir (%34.2) . Sütür kullanım oranı %53.8 olup, %95.5 katılımcı aynı seansda bilateral senil katarakt operasyonunu yapmamaktadır. FAKO’yu %91 bimanuel yapmaktadır. En sık karşılaşılan peroperatif komplikasyon arka kapsül perforasyonu iken, postoperatif komplikasyon kornea ödemidir. Katılımcıların %67.6’sı postoperatif subkonjonktival antibiotik kullanırken, %87.8’i intrakamaral antibiotik kullanımını tercih etmemektedir. Sonuç: Türkiye’de ilk defa gerçekleştirilen bu anket; ankete katılanlar içinde en çok tercih edilen katarakt cerrahisi yönteminin fakoemülsifikasyon, ameliyat için gerekli görme seviyesinin 0.3 ve altı postoperatif antibiotik kullanımının yaygın olduğunu göstermiştir.
