Abstract

In the two groups of patients with myopic astigmatism the uncorrected near vision was tested after catatract surgery. Each group with 20 patients ages 60-80. All patients enrolled in study have uncorrected far vision 0.5 or better on Snellen tables. In the first group patients were with the rule after surgery myopic astigmatism (1-1.50 Diopter), and in the second group were patients with against the rule after surgery myopic astigmatism (1-1.50 Diopter). Patients in the second group with against the rule astigmatism achieved significantly (p<0.01) better uncorrected near vision.

Abstract in Croatian

Nakon operacije katarakte u dvije skupine bolesnika s miopskim astigmatizmom izmjerena je nekorigirana oštrina vida na blizinu. U svakoj skupini je bilo po 20 bolesnika u dobi 60–80 godina. Bolesnici uključeni u istraživanje su imali nekorigiranu oštrinu vida za daljinu 0,5 ili bolju na Snellenovim optotipima. U prvu skupinu su uvršteni bolesnici s direktnim miopskim astigmatizmom (1–1,5 dioptrija), a u drugu skupinu bolesnici s inverznim miopskim astigmatizmom (1–1,5 dioptrija). Bolesnici u drugoj skupini s inverznim miopskim astigmatizmom su imali značajno bolju nekorigiranu oštrinu vida na blizinu (p<0,05) u odnosu na bolesnike prve skupine s direktnim miopskim astigmatizmom.
