- W2049103677 abstract "The number of very elderly patients waiting for cataract surgery is predicted to increase. The aim of our study was to determine the clinical outcome following cataract surgery in this age group.In this retrospective study, patients aged 96 years and above, who underwent cataract surgery between June 1993 and January 2001, were identified. Clinical data were retrieved from their medical records. Living patients were further invited for clinical examination.In all, 34 eyes of 21 patients (20 females) were identified. Six patients were deceased. In total, 30/34 eyes had phacoemulsification and four had extracapsular extraction. Preoperative vision was <or=6/36 in 24/34 eyes (70.59%) and <or=CF in 16/34 eyes (47.06%). Postoperative vision was >or=6/60 in 25/34 eyes (73.53%), >or=6/18 in 21/34 eyes (61.76%), and >or=6/9 in 10/34 eyes (29.41%). Visual acuity improved in 24/34 eyes (70.59%) and remained the same in 6/34 eyes. Complications included anterior capsule tear (three), zonular dialysis with vitreous loss (one), posterior capsule rupture with vitreous loss (one), incarceration of iris to paracentesis wound (two), postoperative uveitis (two), and posterior capsular opacification (19). In all, 7/34 eyes had undergone YAG capsulotomy.Surgeons should not be deterred from offering cataract surgery to the very elderly as successful visual rehabilitation is the norm. A further prospective multicentre study is required to confirm the benefits and assess the risks of cataract surgery in this age group." @default.
