Participant Flow

This prospective randomized study included 120 patients (120 eyes) with age-related cataract enrolled between July 2010 and January 2011 at the Zhong-shan Ophthalmic Center, Guangzhou, China.

Potential subjects with previous intraocular surgery, glaucoma, pseudoexfoliation, uveitis, high myopia and diabetes mellitus were excluded from participation in the study.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: post-operative week 1, post-operative month 1, and post-operative month 3

Population: The SPSS software package (version 17.0, SPSS Inc, Chicago, IL, USA) was used for statistical analysis and sample size calculation. Mean ultrasound time (UST), surgical time, cumulative dissipated energy (CDE), total BSS volume, and SIA were compared using multifactor analysis of variance.

Central cornea endothelial cell loss was calculated on the basis of preoperative and postoperative endothelial cell density.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: post-operative week 1, post-operative month 1, and post-operative month 3

Corneal astigmatism was measured using an eye scanner (Pentacam; Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany), and the SIA was calculated at each postoperative visit using the following equation.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: post-operative week 1, post-operative month 1, and post-operative month 3

Population: The SPSS software package (version 17.0, SPSS Inc, Chicago, IL, USA) was used for statistical analysis.

The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was measured, using an ETDRS chart and auto-refraction as refined by an ophthalmologist, preoperatively and at postoperative 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months.
