Summary: | Purpose - to determine the correlation between the lens density index and ultrasound dose. Materials and methods. The experimental group of 60 patients (average age 76.4 years) with immature and mature age-related cataract were examined using lens spectrofluorometry to determine the lens density index recording, followed by cataract phacoemulsification and cumulative ultrasound dose registration. Results. A positive correlation between lens density and the total ultrasound dose was revealed. Conclusion. UV-induced spectrofluorimetry of the lens may be used as a prediction method of postoperative complications after ultrasound cataract phacoemulsification as well as basis for choosing a cataract surgery approach.
