Scientific titleChanges in pupil size following phacoemulsification surgery: a prospective cohort study
Study objectivesThe pupil size is important in appropriate cases in whom the combination with phacoemulsification and multifocal intra occular lenses (IOL) implantation would be performed. This is because postoperative visual disturbances may be directly related to the pupil size. Therefore, pupil size assessment of the patients who are to undergo implantation of a multifocal lens is important.
