| contents | <p><strong>Background:</strong> Pseudoexfoliation (PEX) is an age-related fibrillopathy characterized by the deposition of fibrillar material in the eye with increased risk of complications during cataract surgery. <strong>Method:</strong> 90 (ninety) patients above fifty years of age with PEX were studied; planned manual small incision cataract surgery with rigid posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation under peribulbar anesthesia was carried out. <strong>Results:</strong> 40 (44.4%) patients had intraoperative complications. The major postoperative complications were 29 (32.2%) corneal edema with SKS, 27 (30%) severe AC reactions, and 13 (14.4%) iris pigment dispersion. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> It is concluded that proper preoperative evaluation and modification of surgical technique are es-sential to manage intraoperative complications and successful cataract surgery with PEX.</p> <p> </p> <div> </div> |
