    Abstract

    To determine the corneal changes after phacoemulsification on corneal topography. Material and Methods: The present hospital-based prospective, longitudinal, interventional study conducted on 90 patients who underwent uncomplicated phacoemulsification in the Upgraded Department of Ophthalmology Government Medical College, Jammu from 1st November 2020 to 31st October 2021. Results: In this study the mean K1 value pre operatively was 42.30 ± 1.36D and at 3 months was 42.22 ± 1.32D. The mean K2 value pre operatively was 42.98 ± 1.38D and at 3 months was 42.73 ± 1.31D. The mean astigmatism pre operatively was 0.68 ± 0.45D and at 3 months was 0.45 ± 0.29D Conclusion: It concludes that the average astigmatism decreased gradually with increasing postoperative period and was statistically significant at 3 months with p<0.001.
