Abstract

Abstract
Background: The goal of This study is to determine best corrected visual acuity after catract surgery complicated with capsular rupture and vitreous loss.
Methods: This study included 40 subjects had cataract surgeries their ages range from 50 to 65 years divided into 2 groups . The first group included 20 patient whose cataract surgery had no complications ,8 cases(40%) had ECCE and 12 cases(60%) had Phaco,Thier age had mean average +_58.10 and standerd division 4.29. The second group included 20 patient whose cataract surgery complicated with capsular rupture and vitreous loss, 8cases (40%) had ECCE and 12 cases (60%) had phaco,Thier age had mean average +- 58.20 and standerd division 3.69. By measuring BCVA 8 weeks after surgery the BCVA at phaco group the uncomplicated cases had mean +- 0.40 and SD +-0.12 ,the complicated cases had mean +- 0.22 and SD +-0.14.The p value is 0.003 . AT the EXTRA cases ,the uncomplicated cases with mean +|- 0.48 SD +|- 0.29 and the complicated cases had mean +- 0.21 SD +- 0.06 . The p value is 0.033.
Results: It was found that BCVA at patients with PCR and vitreous loss is less than other patients whose cataract surgery had no complication .
