Popis: To determine the effect of clinical and cytological features of ocular surface disease on patient’s satisfaction following small incision cataract surgery at a tertiary eye care centre. This is a prospective observational study of 70 consecutive consenting patients who underwent manual small incision cataract surgery(MSICS) at a tertiary eye care centre. All participants underwent ocular surface profile assessment using Schirmer I test (ST1), tear film break-up time (TBUT), conjunctival impression cytology (CIC) and ocular surface disease index (OSDI) at pre-operative visit, 1-week and 4-week post-operative visit. Patient’s satisfaction with surgical outcome was evaluated at 6-week post-operative visit using a rating scale of 1 to 10. Data were analysed using IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY USA). The mean age was 68 ± 9.4 years with a male/female ratio of 1:1.1. The mean OSDI score decreased significantly (p
