  • Title: [Intraocular pressure ten weeks after cataract surgery].
    Author: Noske W, Pahlitzsch T, Kirchner J.
    Journal: Ophtalmologie; 1989; 3(3):248-9. PubMed ID: 2641126.
    Abstract:
    The effect of phacoemulsification and extracapsular cataract extraction on the intra-ocular pressure is analysed for several intra-operative factors. The mean intraocular pressure is significantly reduced ten weeks after the operation in comparison with the preoperative intraocular pressure. This reduction of the intraocular pressure is most significant for eyes with preoperative ocular hypertension and those eyes where leakage of the aqueous humour was evidenced during the immediate postoperative period.
