Purpose: We compared the efficacy and safety of immediate sequential bilateral cataract surgery (ISBCS) and delayed sequential bilateral cataract surgery (DSBCS).
Methods: We analyzed the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical equivalent (SE), and mean absolute error (MAE) in the ISBSC and DSBSC groups. The study population comprised 72 patients (144 eyes) who underwent ISBCS and 92 patients (184 eyes) who underwent DSBCS at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital between January 2019 and December 2021.
Results: At 1 month postoperatively, the ISBCS group demonstrated a BCVA, SE, and MAE of 0.11 ± 0.09, -0.33 ± 0.42 diopters (D), and 0.38 ± 0.32 D, respectively; similarly, the DSBCS group exhibited a BCVA, SE, and MAE of 0.11 ± 0.15, -0.29 ± 0.56 D, and 0.41 ± 0.43 D, respectively. Furthermore, no significant differences were observed between the ISBCS and the DSBCS groups regarding SE and MAE at the 1-month follow-up for the first and second operated eyes. No cases of postoperative endophthalmitis and toxic anterior segment syndrome were reported.
Conclusions: ISBCS is an effective and cost-effective approach that yields favorable postoperative outcomes when performed by an experienced surgeon supported by appropriate pre- and postoperative care, particularly in patients who demonstrate good cooperation.
