Analysis of the Effect of Phacoemulsification and Intraocular Lens Implantation Combined With Trabeculectomy on Cataract and Its Influence on Corneal Endothelium
Abstract
ObjectiveThis study aimed to discuss the effect of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation (PHACO + IOL) combined with trabeculectomy (TRAB) on cataracts and its influence on the corneal endothelium.MethodsWe selected 120 cataract patients admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to January 2021. According to different surgical methods, they were divided into the control group and the observation group. The observation group was treated with PHACO + IOL combined with TRAB, the control group only received PHACO. The clinical effect, ophthalmic-related parameters, corneal endothelium, complications, the satisfaction of the two groups were observed.ResultsThe total effective rate and total satisfaction rate of the observation group were significantly higher than the control group (P < 0.05). One month after the operation, the vision and central anterior chamber depth of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, and intraocular pressure (IOP) was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). One month after the operation, the corneal endothelial cell area and cell density in the observation group were not significantly different from those before operation (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the total incidence of complications between the two groups (P > 0.05).ConclusionThis study concluded that PHACO + IOL combined with TRAB has a good curative effect in the treatment of cataracts, which can improve the patients' vision and IOP, keep the functional integrity of corneal endothelial cells, and does not increase the occurrence of complications, the patients' satisfaction is high.
