To study "small incision cataract surgery (SICS)" for the rehabilitation of cataract visually impaired and blind patients, a retrospective study of 100 cases of cataract patients with small incision cataract surgery (SICS) with posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) implantation were done at Rajshahi Medical College Hospital. All cases were selected having corrected visual acuity less than 6/60 who were admitted at the Department of Ophthalmology for cataract surgery from March, 2006 to February, 2008. Age group of the patient range from 40 to 85 years. Age related senile cataract were selected any complicated cataract was excluded from the study. All these patients underwent SICS with 5.5 mm optic polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) non-foldable posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL) were implanted by irrigation vectis. Intra operative complication were present in 8% cases among them 3 cases (3%) required to conversion to Conventional Extracapsular Cataract Extraction (ECCE). 2 cases (2%) had small posterior capsular rent (PCR), 1 case (1%) irido dialysis & 2 cases (2%) hyphaema occurred. Postoperative complications were found in 38 cases (38%) among them transient corneal oedema occurred in 18 cases (18%) iritis occurred in 13 cases (13%), decentering of intraocular lens (IOL) occurred in 2 cases, corrected visual acuity after 6 weeks of operation were 6/12 or better in 97 cases (97% cases achieved functional vision). Induced astigmatism ± 0.50 D to ± 1.00 D occurred in 94 cases (94%) and ± 1.500 to 2.50D in 6 cases (6%). So, SICS may be the choice of surgery in respect of visual outcome with the limited facilities and surgeons. DOI: 10.3329/taj.v22i1.5037 TAJ 2009; 22(1): 132-135
