Abstract :
The objective of this study is to analyze the differences of the tear film before and after phacoemulsification with temporal clearcorneal incision. Thirty four eyes from 32 patients, who undergone phacoemulsification with temporal corneal incision were enrolledin this one group pre test and post test design cohort study. All subjects were measured for Tear Break Up Time, Fluorescein StainingTest and Schirmer I Test before surgery and on the day 1, day 7 and day 30 after phacoemulsification. This study included 18 menand 16 women, with age were all above 50 years. There were statistically decline in TBUT on day 1 (2.24 seconds) and day 7 (3.62seconds) after surgery, compared to pre operative measurement (5.37 seconds) and increase to pre operative level on day 30 aftersurgery (5.24 seconds). Fluorescein Staining Test showed significant worsening of corneal score on day 1 (1) and day 7 (0.6) postoperatively compared to the preoperative measurement (0), but getting better on day 30 (0.2), although never got back to pre operativelevel. For the Schirmer I test, statistically, there were significant rise on day 1 (15 mm) and day 7(12 mm) after surgery and thendeclined to pre operative level (5.50 mm) on day 30 (6 mm) in conclusion. There were significant differences of the tear film beforeand after phacoemulsification
