Abstract Cataract surgery leads to a sustained decrease in sitting intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with angle-closure glaucoma (ACG). The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether cataract surgery can also reduce postural IOP changes. We prospectively examined 106 eyes from 53 patients with narrow angles scheduled for phacoemulsification. IOP was measured in the sitting, supine, and lateral decubitus positions using an ICare rebound tonometer before and 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively. The mean baseline IOP in the sitting and lateral decubitus positions was 17.9 ± 4.8 mmHg and 21.43 ± 6.44 mmHg, which significantly reduced to 13.52 ± 3.8 and 17.46 ± 3.62, respectively, 3 month postoperatively (p < 0.001). However, postural IOP change (lateral decubitus minus sitting) at 3 months postoperatively was not significantly different from that at the baseline (3.17 ± 2.63 vs. 3.53 ± 3.38 mmHg, p = 0.85). Postural IOP change was not associated with preoperative sitting IOP, anterior chamber depth, axial length, fixed pupil, or presence of glaucomatous optic neuropathy. Patients with higher preoperative IOP exhibited greater IOP reduction after cataract surgery in every posture (p < 0.0001). In conclusion, cataract surgery reduces IOP in all postures among patients with ACG; however, it does not reduce the magnitude of postural IOP change.

Background: Cataract is opacity of lens which is treated surgically. Topical corticosteroids are routinely used in the treatment of post-operative inflammation following cataract surgery. This study aims to compare the intraocular pressure changes caused by various topical steroids (prednisolone, dexamethasone and difluprednate) in post cataract patients. To compare compliance and to detect any significant adverse effects.Methods: Patients admitted in ophthalmology department for cataract surgery operated by phacoemulsification were taken as subjects. Total number of patients enrolled in the study were 354. Subjects were separated into 3 groups depending on topical steroids which were prescribed after surgery: group 1 - difluprednate, group 2 -dexamethasone and group 3 - prednisolone. Changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) of patients were measured by ophthalmology department preoperatively and postoperatively after 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th week of surgery. These data were collected and analysed. Adverse effects, Compliance of patients and number of bottles of drug used after surgery were also noted.Results: On comparing IOP, there was significant variation (p<0.027) between 3 drugs after one week of drug administration. When group 1 was compared with group 2 or group 3 there was no significant difference Average cost of difluprednate is about 3 times higher than the cost of dexamethasone or prednisolone.Conclusions: All the three topical steroids cause a rise in intraocular pressure in post cataract patients. But in group 1 (difluprednate) there was a rise in IOP up to three weeks after surgery but after 3rd week IOP remained stable. Adverse effects were seen more in group 2 and group 3.

Purpose. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to evaluate intraocular pressure (IOP) changes during femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) using two different patient interface systems. Methods. 116 eyes of 116 patients scheduled for cataract surgery were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (61 eyes) and group 2 (55 eyes) underwent FLACS using Catalys Laser with fluid interface (liquid optics interface, LOI) and LenSx Laser with curved interface and soft contact lens (SoftFit), respectively. IOP was assessed using a portable rebound tonometer (Icare®) preoperatively, after docking, immediately after surgery, at one and seven days postoperatively. Results. In group 1, the mean IOP (±SD) was 14.1 ± 0.4 mmHg before surgery, 33.2 ± 1.1 mmHg after docking, and 21.4 ± 0.9 mmHg immediately after surgery. In group 2, the mean IOP was 13.8 ± 0.4 mmHg before surgery, 24.2 ± 1.4 mmHg after docking, and 20.2 ± 1.2 mmHg immediately after surgery. After the docking procedure, a statistically significant increase in IOP from the baseline was found in both groups (p<0.001). Moreover, no statistically significant difference in IOP measured at 1 and 7 days postoperatively was observed compared with the preoperative values (p>0.05) using both laser platforms. No intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed. Conclusions. FLACS suction phase resulted in a transient increase of IOP in both groups, especially with the LOI system, and it is probably related to the greater pressure of a suction ring and suction generated through the vacuum, independently from the effect of femtosecond laser itself.
