Visual outcomes, complications, results of Cataract Surgery in short eyes
Advertisement
Cataract surgery is challenging in short eyes, with increased complication rates and poorer postoperative refractive predictability. Short eyes include simple microphthalmos, complex microphthalmos, nanophthalmos and relative anterior microphthalmos.
Simple or isolated microphthalmos is an eye shorter than the mean by two standard deviations (typically<21.0 mm) with a normal anterior chamber depth and scleral thickness and no anatomical malformations.
