Application of small incision non-phacoemulcification cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation in wide scale vision recovery action

Objective: To investigate the effect of small incision non-phacoemulcification cataract extraction with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in large scale vision recovery action.Methods: Four hundred and ninety-six cases (496 eyes) of cataract were treated by small incision non-phacoemulcification cataract extraction with IOL implantation.Results: The visual acuity reached 0.3 or more in 440 eyes one day after the operation,and 464 eyes had a visual acuity better than 0.3 seven days after the operation.Conclusions: Small incision non-phacoemulcification cataract surgery and IOL implantation is simple,effective,economical and safe,adapting for large scale vision recovery action.
