Purpose: The aim of this study is the assessment of results of cataract phacoemulsification with the implantation of MemoryLens. Phacoemulsification is the most often used method of cataract extraction nowadays. This method led to shorter incision and reduction of postoperative astigmatism. Using phacoemulsification method the foldable intraocular lenses are applied.
Material And Methods: The cataract phacoemulsification with implantation of the only one prefolded intraocular lens were done in 25 eyes.
Results: Fast visual acuity recovery and no postoperative complications were observed.
Conclusion: MemoryLens are easy to insert, and the effectiveness of this method is similar to implantation of other intraocular foldable lenses.

Purpose: To assess the effect of anterior chamber depth on corneal endothelium using specular microscopy following uneventful phacoemulsification among cataract patients with different axial lengths.
Methods: The study was conducted in a quasi-experimental design including 300 eyes of 300 patients with grade three age-related nuclear cataract distributed equally based on their axial length into three equal groups. All eyes had grade three nuclear cataract.

This study investigated the content of inflammatory cytokines in the aqueous humor (AH) of cataract patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and explored the effect of metformin on the level of cytokines. AH was collected from patients undergoing phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in Peking University Third Hospital. Levels of cytokines were measured by Cytometric Bead Assay (CBA) Flex Set.

Purpose: To report a singular case of cataract caused by toad venom inoculation and to scrutinize the pathological mechanisms through proteomic sequencing of the lens specimen.
Methods: A young Chinese male presented with progressively deteriorating vision in his right eye subsequent to a history of toad venom inoculation. He was diagnosed with a toxic cataract, and underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery.

A 65-year-old male patient presented to eye outpatient department of a zonal hospital in North Eastern India with complaints of diminution of vision for 1-year duration. On ocular examination, his unaided visual acuity was 6/36 right eye and 6/12 left eye. He was diagnosed as a case of immature senile cataract with nuclear sclerosis grade 2+ in the right eye and immature senile cataract with nuclear sclerosis grade 1+ in the left eye, with no other ocular or systemic findings.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy and quality of healing of main corneal incisions in femtosecond laser procedures in cataract surgery.
Methods: It was a prospective, non-randomized, investigator-masked study. A total of 37 eyes of 37 patients with indication for cataract surgery were separated into two groups in this prospective, nonrandomized study: Femto group, with incisions automated by femtosecond laser (18 eyes), and Phaco group, with incisions made using a keratome (19 eyes).
