Abstract

Aim – to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lens surgery using 3D imaging technologies in comparison with the standard analog imaging method.

Material and methods. The study involved 500 people (500 eyes). The main group of patients consisted of 250 eyes operated using a LEICA M844 operating microscope with an NGENUITY camera instead of optical eyepieces, equipped with both CONSTELLATION (Alcon) and MILLENNIUM (Bausch & Lomb) surgical systems. The control group consisted of 250 eyes operated on using the same microscope but with standard eyepieces. All patients underwent cataract phacoemulsification. The control points for the result evaluation were the maximum corrected visual acuity in patients, the time of operation and the number of complications.

Results. The patients in the main group, on average, had a higher maximum corrected visual acuity after surgery, as well as a shorter time for surgical intervention.

Conclusion. The technology of three-dimensional imaging is relevant for performing operations on the eye lens and has a potential for further development and research of the technology, and also has the prospect of replacing the analog microscope binoculars in the near future.
