简介:摘要目的研究不同位置透明角膜切口超声乳化白内障吸除术后角膜散光的变化。方法将48例(76只眼)白内障患者,按照切口位置位于颞上方及鼻上方或最大角膜屈光力子午线轴位分为A、B两组,行透明角膜切口超声乳化白内障吸除术,比较术后角膜散光的变化。结果A组平均角膜散光度术前为(0.80±0.66)D,术后3月为(0.67±0.59)D,两者比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);B组平均角膜散光度术前为(0.82±0.67)D,术后3月为(0.40±0.36)D,两者比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);A组术后3月较术前平均角膜散光度减少0.13D,而B组术后3月较术前平均角膜散光度减少0.41D,两者比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论超声乳化白内障吸除术中选择最大角膜屈光力子午线轴位做透明角膜切口,术后患者角膜散光度减小,视觉质量得到提高。
简介:摘要目的探讨植物性角膜外伤致真菌性角膜炎的治疗方法和效果。方法对83例(83只眼)有角膜植物伤史的感染性角膜炎病例,通过直接镜检或根据角膜溃疡的表现或通过实验室真菌培养等方式予以确诊后,选择治疗方案。83例中行溃疡面清除联合羊膜移植术的22例,行板层角膜移植术的8只眼,所有病人行溃疡面清除加碘酊烧灼,局部和全身常规使用抗真菌药物治疗。结果83例病例中81例治愈,治愈率97.5%,视力均较前增加。2例就诊时角膜已大面积毁坏,接近穿孔,前房大量积脓,最终病情恶化而不得不选择眼球内容摘除术。结论在真菌性角膜炎的治疗中,药物的合理应用,手术技巧的革新和手术方式的正确选择,是有效控制感染并防止感染复发的关键。
