Purpose:
|
The purpose of this study was to determine the intraoperative complications of cataract surgery over the period from 2006 to 2010
|
|
Methods:
|
In this cross-sectional study, 106 of the 272 cataract surgical centers in Iran were selected through multistage random cluster sampling from all provinces. In each province, the selected number of centers was proportionate to the number of cataract surgeries, and in each center, the selected number of charts was proportionate to the center’s number of cataract surgeries, from which we retrieved intraoperative complications
|
|
Results:
|
The prevalence of intraoperative complications of cataract surgery was 5.04% (95% confidence interval: 3.53-6.54) in 2006, which decreased significantly to 3.44% (95% CI: 1.84-5.04) in 2010. The most common complication was Posterior capsular rupture/ vitreous loss which lowered from 4.29% (95%CI: 2.93-5.66) in 2006 to 2.81% (95%CI: 1.3-4.31) in 2010. The next common complication was Suprachoroidal hemorrhage which was 0.56% ( 95%CI 0.25-0.87) in 2006 and 0.46% (95%CI 0.3-0.62) in 2010

|
Conclusion:
|
Complications of cataract surgery in Iran had a descending trend during 2006-2010. However, 2010 results indicate that cataract surgical complications need to be focused on
