A clinical study of immediate postoperative corneal edema in patients undergoing minor incision cataract surgery in a teaching hospital

Postoperative corneal edema following cataract surgery is a known complication usually resolved by medical management. More excellent surgical experiences with a shorter duration of surgery and proper instrumentation were associated with reduced early postoperative corneal edema. Early detection and classification of DMD with the help of AS-OCT for those requiring medical and surgical management aid recognize the clinically relevant DMD. Thus, a timely switch to surgical management helps maintain vision in patients with DMD.
