Abstract

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of phacoemulsification and folding IOL implantation for cataract with high myopia. Methods 27 cases(47 eyes) of cataract with high myopia accepted phacoemulsification and folding IOL implantation.The operative and postoperative complication,postoperative visual acuity and refraction status were observed.The follow up time was more than 6 months. Results The operative and postoperative complications included rupture of posterior capsule(1 eye),corneal edema(7 eyes),uveitis(1 eye).3 months after the surgery,the best corrected visual acuity was as follows: 2 eyes lower than 0.1,12 eyes were 0.1-0.4,30 eyes were 0.5-0.9,3 eyes were 1.0-1.5. Conclusions Phacoemulsification and folding IOL implantation is an effective and safe method for cataract with high myopia.
