[2.6 million cataract surgeries: 31 years with the Swedish National Cataract Register 1992-2022].

This review summarizes data collected by the Swedish National Cataract Register (NCR), which by the end of 2022 contained data on more than 2.6 million cataract surgeries between 1992-2022. During these 31 years, the cataract surgery rate (CSR) rose from 3 700 to 14 407.

Two point four million cataract surgeries: 30 years with the Swedish National Cataract Register, 1992-2021.

The present review summarizes data collected by the Swedish National Cataract Register (NCR), which by the end of 2021 contained data for more than 2.4 million cataract surgeries between 1992 and 2021. During these 30 years, the cataract surgery rate rose from 3700 to 12 800.

Decreasing rate of capsule complications in cataract surgery: eight-year study of incidence, risk factors, and data validity by the Swedish National Cataract Register.

Purpose: To define the incidence of capsule complication and its risk factors in Sweden over an 8-year period.

Setting: Fifty-two ophthalmic surgery units in Sweden.

Design: Database study.

Capsule complication during cataract surgery: Background, study design, and required additional care: Swedish Capsule Rupture Study Group report 1.

Purpose: To report the selection procedure of complicated and uneventful cataract extractions included in the Swedish Capsule Rupture Study and to describe the additional care required after a capsule complication during cataract surgery.

Setting: Ten ophthalmic surgery departments in Sweden.

Methods: Consecutive cataract extractions with a reported capsule complication were selected from the national database.

Endophthalmitis after cataract surgery: a nationwide prospective study evaluating incidence in relation to incision type and location.

Purpose: To establish the nationwide rate of postoperative endophthalmitis (PE) after cataract extraction (CE) and to study the relationship between PE and type of incision and other possible risk factors.

Design: Prospective, multicenter, comparative, nonrandomized, observational study.

Participants: All cataract surgeries in Sweden performed from January 2002 through December 2004 and all endophthalmitis cases in the same period that were reported to the Swedish National Cataract Register (NCR).
