Popis: | Purpose To compare the effect of phacoemulsification on the corneal endothelium using fortified balanced salt solution (BSS Plus) and Ringer lactate as the intraocular irrigating solution. Setting P.D. Hinduja Hospital, Mumbai, India. Design Prospective randomized controlled double-blinded clinical study. Methods Patients with senile cataract up to nuclear grade III were randomized to have phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation performed using fortified balanced salt solution (Group A) or Ringer lactate (Group B) as the intraocular irrigating solution. The corneal endothelial cell density (primary outcome) and pachymetry were measured preoperatively and 1 week and 1 and 6 months postoperatively. Results Each group comprised 35 eyes (35 patients). The postoperative percentage of endothelial cell loss was not significantly different between the 2 groups at 1 week ( P =.582), 1 month ( P =.668), or 6 months (5.03% and 8.35% in Group A and Group B, respectively) ( P =.483) and was within the limits reported in the literature. The postoperative percentage change in pachymetry was not significantly different between the 2 groups at 1 week ( P =.179) or 1 month ( P =.170) but was significant at 6 months ( P Conclusion Corneal endothelial cell loss after phacoemulsification with Ringer lactate was similar to that with fortified balanced salt solution over the long term.
