“…1, 3 We quantitatively compared the residual amount of each OVD on the corneal endothelium of porcine eyes after PEA conducted in the same manner as actual cataract surgery. We found that Viscoat could be dispersed by lower intraocular pressure after the removal of the ultrasound tip.…”

“…1 Ophthalmic viscosurgical devices offer many advantages; however, their use has been correlated with increases in intraocular pressure (IOP) within the first 24 hours postoperatively. [2][3][4][5][6][7] These increases are the most frequent short-term complication of cataract surgery and can lead to corneal edema and pain. In addition, they may increase the risk for retinal artery occlusion, ischemic optic neuropathy, and deterioration of preexisting glaucomatous nerve damage.…”

“…[2][3][4][5][6][7] Elevated postoperative IOP is attributed to damage to the trabecular meshwork, inflammation, retained lens material, and clogging of the trabecular meshwork by the OVD substance. [25][26][27] In uneventful cataract surgery, the most important reason for an early postoperative IOP increase may be the residual OVD material, which mechanically obstructs the trabecular outflow pathway and hence decreases the outflow facility.…”

“…The capsular bag was expanded using Provisc, and a foldable IOL was implanted in the capsular bag. The OVD was aspirated from the retrolental space, capsule fornix, and anterior chamber in a standardized fashion using a bimanual irrigation/aspiration (I/A) tip similar to the method described by Rainer et al 7 First, the side of the IOL optic was tilted up and the I/A tips were inserted behind the optic. Next, the central portion of the OVD was removed and the aspiration tip swept across and along the capsule equator to capture peripheral residue.…”

“…However, when it is not removed completely, it may cause intraoculer pressure (IOP) rise within the first 24 hours following the cataract surgery. [2][3][4][5] There are also other causes which may contribute to elevated IOP after cataract surgery such as retained lens content, iris pigment release and hyphema caused by surgical trauma. 6 Postoperative IOP rise may cause pain, discomfort, corneal edema, optic nerve damage and visual field loss in patients with preexisting glaucoma.…”

A AB BS S T TR RA AC CT T O Ob bj je ec ct ti iv ve e: : To compare the efficacy and safety of topical dorzolamide-timolol maleate combination with oral acetazolamide for prevention of intraocular pressure rise following phacoemulsification surgery. M Ma at te er ri ia al l a an nd d M Me et th ho od ds s: : Sixty-seven eyes of 67 patients with cataracts (33 males, 34 females) who had undergone phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation surgery were evaluated retrospectively. Patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 comprised 33 (49%) patients who received oral acetazolamide 250 mg (Diazomid 250 mg tb) 1 hour before the surgery and 1hour after surgery and 125 mg 3 times a day for 3 days following surgery. Group 2 comprised 34 (51%) patients who received topical dorzolamidetimolol maleate combination 1 drop 1 hour before the surgery and twice a day for 3 days following surgery. R Re es su ul lt ts s: : The mean preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) of the first group was 14.60±3.21 standard deviation (SD) (range 10-21) mmHg. and that of the second group was 14.67±2.77 (SD) (11-21) mmHg (p=0.924). The mean postoperative IOP(1 st day) of the first group was 15.27±2.90 (SD) (11-23) mmHg and that of the second group was 14.82±2.57 (SD) (11-23) mmHg (p=0.505). The mean postoperative IOP (1 st week) of the first group was 13.72±2.44 (SD) (10-18) mmHg and that of the second group was 13.64±2.53 (SD) (10-19) mmHg (p=0.895). C Co on nc cl lu us si io on n: : For prophylaxis of postoperative IOP rise after an uneventful cataract surgery, topical-dorzolamid timolol maleate combination and oral acetazolamide therapy have similar effects, however the adverse effects of systemic acetazolamide should be taken into account. Therefore it is better to prefer topical dorzolamide-timolol maleate combination therapy. K Ke ey y W Wo or rd ds s: : Phacoemulsification; intraocular pressure; acetazolamide; dorzolamide-timolol combination Ö ÖZ ZE ET T A Am ma aç ç: : Fakoemülsifikasyon cerrahisi sonrası artan göziçi basıncını azaltmak için kullanılan ağızdan verilen asetazolamid ile damla şeklinde uygulanan dorzolamid-timolol maleat kombinasyonunun etkinlik ve güvenilirliğinin kıyaslanmasıdır. G Ge er re eç ç v ve e Y Yö ön nt te em ml le er r: : Kataraktı olan ve fakoemülsifikasyon ve göziçi mercek (GİM) implantasyon cerrahisi geçiren 67 (33 erkek, 34 kadın) hastanın 67 gözü retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Hastalar iki gruba ayrıldılar. 1. grup 33 (%49) hastadan oluşmaktaydı, bu gruptaki hastalara ameliyattan 1 saat önce ve 1 saat sonra ağızdan 250 mg asetazolamid (toplam 500 mg) verildi ve ameliyattan sonraki 3 gün boyunca da 125 mg asetazolamid 3x1 önerildi. 2. grup 34 (%51) hastadan oluşmaktaydı, bu gruptaki hastalara ameliyattan 1 saat önce 1 damla dorzolamid-timolol maleat kombinasyonu uygulandı ve ameliyattan sonraki 3 gün boyunca da damla şeklinde dorzolamid-timolol maleat kombinasyonu 2x1 şek-linde önerildi.

Comparison of the effect of Viscoat and DuoVisc on postoperative intraocular pressure after small-incision cataract surgery

Abstract: Viscoat caused significantly higher IOP increases and significantly more IOP spikes than DuoVisc in the early postoperative period. Therefore, if Viscoat is used during cataract surgery, an additional cohesive OVD should be used for IOL implantation.
