Retrospective Analysis of Combined Cataract and Strabismus Correction in Adult Population

Smita Kapoor

Purpose: To study the effectiveness of combined cataract and strabismus correction in adults.

Methods: A retrospective study involving 100 patients who underwent cataract extraction combined with strabismus correction was done. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on measurement of angle of strabismus. Group 1 included cases measuring 60 Prism Diopter.

Results: The results were analyzed based on motor alignment and visual outcome. Good motor alignment (20/40 was achieved in 91% of patients. There was no statistical difference in BCVA between the two groups. No serious complications were seen post-operatively.

Conclusion: Strabismus correction in adults is very effective as it is more than a cosmetic correction. It not only adds to patient satisfaction but also improves their quality of life. Thus, if cataract and strabismus coexist, they can be corrected in a single sitting in selected cases without any significant complications.
