Background: India being a developing country, causes of Blindness in India will be different than developed countries. There are 10million (37 million in world) blind people in India today in which 80 percent if taken care in time, completely preventable. AIM:  To evaluate sex predominance, prevalence of different types of lens induced Glaucoma and its visual outcomes in patients attending government general hospital, kadapa. MATERIAL AND METHODS:  This prospective study was conducted in Ophthalmology department of government general hospital, kadapa, Andhra Pradesh from January 2018 to June 2019. 32 Patients visiting the Hospital with classical symptoms of Lens induced Glaucoma were taken into study. RESULTS:  A Total of 32 patients were taken into this study in which 12(37.50%) were male patients and 20(62.50%) were Female. Among different LIG patients maximum patients had Phacomorphic Glaucoma accounting 62.50% (20 patients) and Phacolytic Glaucoma 34.37% (11 patients).

Aim: To evaluate the visual outcome after manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) as a treatment of phacolytic glaucoma. Methods: The study included 43 patients with phacolytic glaucoma treated by manual small incision cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation. Preoperative and postoperative visual acuity and intraocular pressure have been recorded and compared at the end of six weeks after surgery. Results: The mean preoperative intraocular pressure was 36.23 (± 10.86) mm of Hg. There were no significant intraoperative complications such as posterior capsular tear or expulsive hemorrhage. Post operative mean intraocular pressure (IOP) was 12.58 (± 3.45) mm Hg. Pre operative visual acuity in all the affected eyes were perception of light with projection of rays in all quadrant. Postoperative best corrected visual acuity was 6/6-6/18 in 27 patients (62.80%), 6/24- 6/36 in 10 patients (23.25%) and ≤ 6/60 in 6 patients (13.95%). Conclusion: Manual small incision cataract surgery is a safe and effective method of treatment for phacolytic glaucoma and the visual outcome and IOP reduction is satisfactory.

Aims: To study the intraoperative complications in small incision cataract surgery and its management and to study the visual outcome following the management of intraoperative complications. Material and Methods: A total of 250 cases studied from who underwent SICS. Intraoperative complications were studied and managed. Visual outcome following these complications were studied by noting the best corrected visual acuity after day 1, 1<sup>st</sup> week, 3<sup>rd</sup> week, 6<sup>th</sup> week following surgery. Results: The total intraoperative complications were seen in 22 (8.8%) patients. Posterior capsule rent was seen in 6 eyes (2.4%). Iris prolapse in 5 eyes (2%). Descemet detachment was seen in 3 eyes (1.2%). Premature entry was seen in 3 eyes (1.2%). Capsulorrhexis extension was seen in 2 eyes (0.8%). Zonular dialysis was seen in 2 eyes (0.8%). Superior iridodialysis was seen in only one eye (0.4%). Out of 250 cases, 246 came for follow up till 6th week. 214 (85.6%) patients had post operative BCVA 6/6 at the end of 6<sup>th</sup> week, 25(10%) patients had 6/9, 5 patients (2%) had 6/12-6/18 and remaining 2 patients (0.8%) had 6/24-6/36 BCVA. Conclusion: The study results shows that in high quality cataract surgery (91.2% without intraoperative complications) 99% BCVA 6/18 or better can be attained. In our study incidence of intraoperative complications was 8.8% in which posterior capsular rent and iris prolapse were the common intraoperative complications.

Background: Present study investigated the occurrence of cataract in dogs presented to the Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex (TVCC) and Department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology under Odisha University of Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar during a period of four months. During the study period, a total number of 3847 canine cases were registered at TVCC, out of which 23 cases registered under the RKVY project for different types of ophthalmic affections. There were only eight canine cataract cases with overall prevalence of 0.2% among total canines presented to TVCC and 34.78% of total canines presented with some sorts of ophthalmic affections. Methods: Menace reflex, pupillary light reflex, maze test, obstacle test, catoptrics test, Schirmer’s tear test (STT), Schiotz tonometry, Slit lamp bio microscopy and fundus examination -using indirect ophthalmoscope (IO) and fundus camera, were carried out in all the cases studied. Result: Occurrence of cataract was higher in Spitz (50%). Males had more incidences (62.5%) of cataract. The ages of the dogs were less than 10 years. B mode ultra-sonographic (USG) examination revealed increased echogenecity of lens in all cataract affected dogs while corneal opacification was found in two cases. Cataract was extracted by phaco-emulsification in three dogs and by small incision cataract surgery (SICS) technique in one dog.

Introduction: Manual small incision cataract surgery (MSICS) is a cost-effective alternative to phacoemulsification cataract surgery for developing countries. This prospective study was carried out in Combined Military Hospital (CMH), Chittagong from October 2009 to March 2011 on 75 cataract patients who were operated by MSICS technique. Objectives: Aim of this study was to assess the visual outcome and complications of MSICS in a peripheral CMH. Methods: Seventy five cataract patients were operated by MSICS technique. All surgical procedures were performed by the principal author. Major per-operative and postoperative complications were documented. Visual outcome was assessed by Snellen’s visual acuity test 06 weeks after operation. Results: Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) was 6/6 – 6/18 in 57 (76.0%) patients, < 6/18 – 6/60 in 15 (20%) and < 6/60 in 03 (4.0%) patients. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 6/6-6/18 in 65 (86.7%) patients, < 6/18-6/60 in 07 (9.3%) and < 6/60 in 03(4.0%) patients. Visual outcome was good in 86.7% of patients according to World Health Orgnization (WHO) criteria and was not far away from the WHO expected outcome. Posterior capsule rupture was the most significant per-operative complication which was found in 7(9.3%) cases and surgically induced astigmatism was main postoperative complication that affected visual outcome. Mean postoperative astigmatism (against-the rule) was - 1.25DC. 14 JAFMC Bangladesh. Vol 10, No 1 (June) 2014 Conclusion: MSICS is a safe and cost-effective technique of extra-capsular cataract extraction where surgical skill and experience of the surgeon plays a significant role in the result.

Introduction: The small-incision cataract surgery is gaining popularity among the ophthalmic surgeons. Objective: To compare the visual outcome of conventional extra-capsular cataract extraction (ECCE) and small-incision cataract surgery (SICS) in a hospital based community cataract program. Materials and methods: A prospective interventional study without randomization was carried out including the patients undergoing cataract surgery by either conventional ECCE or manual SICS. They were followed up for 6 weeks postoperatively. The visual outcomes were compared between the two groups. Statistics: The statistical program Epi-Info version 2000 was used to analyze the data. Mean values with standard deviations, 95% CI and p value were calculated. The p value of <0.05 was considered significant. Results: Of 85 patients, 44 (M: F=10:34) underwent ECCE and 41 (M: F=15:26) SICS (RR= 0.71, 95% CI=0.42-1.2, p value=0.16). Unaided visual acuity on the 1st postoperative day in the ECCE group was e"6/ 18 in 22.7%,<6/18-6/60 in 63.6 %,< 6/60 in 13.7%, whereas in the SICS group, the same was e"6/18 in 70.7%,<6/18-6/60 in 22 %,< 6/60 in 7.3% (95% CI = 0.23 - 0.48, p=0.001). Best corrected visual acuity on the 6th week follow-up in the ECCE group was e"6/18 in 79.5%,<6/18-6/60 in 18.2 %,< 6/60 in 2.3% and in the SICS group the same was 6/18 in 90.5% and <6/18-6/60 in 4.9% (95% CI=0.44 - 0.73; p=0.0012). Conclusion: Both ECCE and SICS are good procedures for hospital based community cataract surgery but within the 6 weeks postoperative period SICS gives better visual outcome. Remarkably higher number of female patients can be provided service in a hospital based community cataract programme as compared to males.
