Cataract is the major cause of blindness in the developing world. Study aimed at evaluation of tear film stability and tear secretion after phacoemulsification compared with MSICS. Material and methods: This prospective comparative randomized study was performed in a tertiary centre of Jharkhand between June 2018 to March 2019. 187 patients with senile cataract were included in this study. Group A had 110 patients undergoing MSICS and group B 77 patients undergoing phacoemulsification. Dry eye symptoms(DES) characterizedby redness, burning, stinging, foreign body sensation, photophobia. Corneal fluorescein staining was performed. Basal Schirmer test was performed for assessment of aqueous tear production. Patients were examined post operatively on 1st week, 4th week and 3rd month. Results: Out of 187 patients 103(55.08%) were male and 84(44.91%) were female. Grade of DES increased significantly 1 week after each procedure compared to pre-operative data and remained increased after 4 weeks of surgery. After 3 months the symptoms decreased and returned to baseline data. Conclusion: MSICS is as effective as phacoemulsification with no difference between both techniques regarding tear film stability and tear secretion.
