Abstract;We studied postoperative refractive changes in 81 eyes of 66 patients with vitreoretinal disease who underwent the triple procedure of vitrectomy, phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. MA60BM and VA-60CA 10 IOLS were randomly inserted into 34 and 47 eyes, respectively. The MA60BM group demonstrated greater change in postoperative refraction than did the VA-60CA group; refractive error in the MA60BM group shifted to myopia soon after surgery, and later to hyperopia. Anterior chamber depth changes were smaller in the VA-60CA group than in the MA60BM group, as was the case with refractive error. IOL dislocation and tilting, and anterior chamber depth were closely correlated with refractive error after the triple procedure of vitrectomy, phacoemulsification and IOL implantation. (author abst.)
