Comparison of Endothelial Cell Loss in Diabetics After Phacoemulsification and Extra-Capsular Cataract Extraction.
Al-Shifa J Ophthalmol Jan ;13(1):18-24.

This randomized clinical trial was conducted to compare the frequency of endothelial cell loss in diabetics after phacoemulsification and extra-capsular cataract extraction. Patients were allocated into two groups, based on the type of surgery advised. Specular microscopy was done in both groups and endothelial cell count was recorded in each case before and after surgery. This study revealed that there was a statistically significant difference in the corneal endothelial cell loss in diabetics after phacoemulsification and extracapsular cataract extraction.
