Cataract incision-related corneal erosion: recurrent corneal erosion because of clear corneal cataract surgery
View through CrossRef
Three patients developed recurrent corneal erosions (RCEs) over their cataract surgery corneal incisions. These cataract incision-related corneal erosions (CIRCEs) resulted in pain after cataract surgery. None had any physical findings for corneal erosion; thus, a new technique called the corneal sweep test was developed to identify the erosion. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first time this association between the clear corneal cataract incision and RCEs has been reported. Considering the high number of cataract surgeries performed around the world, it is important for ophthalmologists to recognize CIRCEs as a potential cause of ocular discomfort after clear corneal cataract surgery.
