Abstract

Introduction: Many patients have complained of dry eye and symptoms of irritations after cataract surgery, and it has been shown that both the incidence and severity of dry eye use increase. In particular, the reduction in tear break-up time (TBUT) and squamous metaplasia in conjunctival impression cytology were documented after phacoemulsification.
Objectives: To investigate the dry eye symptoms after cataract surgery in MGD patients and their relationships.
Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted at the Regional Institute of Ophthalmology, Sitapur. Demographic data of 50 enrolled patients will be collected after obtaining their written informed consent. All patients underwent uncomplicated cataract surgery with age-related cataracts. In the study, patients were divided into two groups according to MGD diagnostic criteria: Group A (MGD group) and group B (control group). Shirmer 1 test (ST1), tear break up time (TBUT), and control fluoresce staining (CSF) were performed preoperatively and at 3,7, 14, and 30 days postoperatively also measured eyelid meibomian gland morphology, meibomian gland expression, and meibomian character scores before and after cataract surgery.
