Abstract

AIM: To compare the CCT (CCT) on OCT in patients of senile cataract undergoing Phacoemulsification versus SICS with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: It was a descriptive, longitudinal study done on 168 patients > 50 years who underwent SICS or phacoemulcification with IOL implantation. Preoperative and postoperative CCT and visual outcomes were noted. RESULTS: Preoperatively CCT values in phaco and SICS groups were 513 and 507.65 respectively which increased to 592 and 555.27 respectively on post-op Day1. On day 7 and day 30 CCT values in SICS group were 527.75 and 513.62 and in phaco group were 538.42 and 519.13 respectively. CONCLUSION: There was significant increase in CCT in both groups on postop day 1 (phaco > SICS). However on subsequent postop days 7 and 30 the CCT values in both groups kept on decreasing and reached close to preoperative value. Though overall CCT values of SICS group were lower as compared to phaco group, the difference between two groups was statistically insignificant.
