Novel index for predicting IOP reduction following cataract surgery
British Journal of Ophthalmology, May 2005
IOP reduction following cataract surgery was found to be positively related to preoperative IOP, and inversely related to preoperative anterior chamber depth. As a result, the authors suggest a novel index – the pressure to depth ratio – is strongly predictive for IOP reduction following cataract extraction and may prove useful in surgical decision making.
