The cataract surgery anesthesia should be to make the procedure as safe and as satisfactory as possible for all concerned. The recent progress in anesthesia and surgery now allow cataract extraction to be done with minimal physiological changes to the patient. We aimed in the study to compare between two different doses of dexmedetomidine combined with lidocaine and bupivacaine during retrobulbar anesthesia for cataract extraction by phacoemulsification.
