Abstract

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens(IOL)implantation for correction of high myopia by analyzing 42 cases of patients' clinical data.Method:Phacoemulsification and IOL implantation was performed on 42 cases(58eyes) diagnosed with very high myopia and cataract.Postoperative visual acuity and refractive change were recorded.Intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed.Result:The postoperative best corrected visual acuity,cylinder,spherical refractive error were improved to varying degrees.No severe complications were observed.Conclusion:Phacoemulsification combining with IOL implantation offers advantages of better rehabilitation of visual acuity,proper correction of ametropia and is effective and safe for highly myopia cataract patients.
