Abstract

Objective: To evaluate postoperative outcomes of lens extraction by phacoemulsification surgery in highly myopic patients. Materials and Methods: The medical records of 31 patients who had undergone clear lens extraction or cataract extraction were reviewed retrospectively. Lens extraction was performed by phacoemulsification method in all patients. Preoperative, postoperative visual acuity and ref­ractive errors, intraoperative, postoperative complications and their treatments were recorded. ; Results: Phacoemulsification and posterior chamber lens implantation were performed on 46 eyes of 31 patients. Patients were followed-up for 14.2±5.6 months. 6 eyes with athrophic retinal holes underwent argon laser photocoagulation before the surgery. Mean preoperative spherical equivalent refraction was recorded -12.0+3.ID while -1.5D±1.0D in post operative period. In 26% of eyes best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA)was >0.5 before the surgery, after the surgery the proportion of eyes with BCVA >0.5 increased to 78%. Posterior capsule rupture was observed in 3 eyes. Three eyes had an immediate postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) rise, both resolved with topical treatment. No retinal detachment (RD) was observed and no eyes required additional retinal photocoagulation. Posterior capsule opacification (PCO) devoloped in %20 of eyes and were treated with neodmium:YAG (Nd:YAG) laser capsulotomy. Conclusion: In our series no RD in any eyes was observed. Although the additional fol­low-up is required to estimate the complications, importance of renovations in intraocular sur­gery, increased surgical experience, detailed preoperative examination and minimal surgical tra­uma to the eye with small incision cataract surgery is not be ignored.

Özet

Amaç: Yüksek miyopili olgularda fakoemülsifikasyonla lens ekstraksiy onu sonuçlarımızın değerlendirilmesi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Katarakt ekstraksiy onu ve şeffaf lens ekstraksiy onu yapılan yüksek mi­yopili (>-8.00 dioptri) 31 olgunun 46 gözü retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Tüm olgularda lens ekstraksiy onu için fakoemulsifikasyon yöntemi kullanıldı. Preoperatif, postoperatif görme keskinlikleri, refraksiyon değerleri, intraoperatif ve postoperatif komplikasyonlar, bu kompli-kasyonların tedavileri kaydedildi. Bulgular: 31 olgunun 46 gözüne fakoemülsifikasyonla lens ekstraksiyonu yapıldı. Olgular ortalama 14.2±5.6 ay takip edildi. 6 göze atrofik retina deliği mevcut olması sebebiyle cerrahi öncesi argon laser fotokoagülasyon yapıldı. Cerrahi öncesi ortalama sferik ekivalan refraksiyon değeri -12.0±3.1D iken cerrahi sonrası -1.5±1.0D olarak bulundu. Cerrahi öncesi en iyi düzeltil­miş görme keskinliği gözlerin %26'sınde >0.5 iken, bu oran cerrahi sonrası %78'e yükseldi. Cerrahi sırasında 3 olguda arka kapsül rüptürü meydana geldi. 3 olguda cerrahi sonrası geçici göz içi basıncı yükselmesi tespit edilirken tüm olgularda topikal antiglokomatöz tedavi yeterli oldu. Hiçbir olguda retina dekolmanı saptanmadı, cerrahi sonrası ilave laser fotokoagülasyona gerek duyulmadı. Gözlerin %20'sinde arka kapsül kesifliği gelişti. Bu olgulara neodmium:YAG (Nd:YAG) laser kapsülotomi uygulandı. Sonuçlar: Serimizde hiçbir gözde retina dekolmanı saptanmamıştır. Komplikasyonların değerlendirilmesi için daha uzun takip süresi gerekmesine rağmen intraoküler cerrahideki yeni­likler, artan cerrahi tecrübe, preoperatif ayrıntılı muayene, küçük kesili katarakt cerrahisi ile mi­nimal intraoküler travmanın önemi gözardı edilmemelidir.
