AIM: To analyze clinical curative effect of small incision non-phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation in the treatment of the high myopia with cataract.

METHODS: Seven-four cases(78 eyes)of patients with high myopia and cataract were randomly divided into control group and observation group, 37 cases(39 eyes)in each group. The control group underwent cataract phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation, the observation group received small incision non-phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation. The treatment effect was analyzed.

RESULTS: After treatment, there was no significant difference in the ratio uncorrected visual acuity of 0.5 and above in two groups. IOP was significantly decreased in two groups after treatment with no significant difference. Intraoperative and postoperative complications in observation group were significantly lower than that in control group. Wound healing time of observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group.

CONCLUSION:Small incision non-phacoemulsification cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation in the treatment of high myopia with cataract has significant effect, lower complication rate, and is worthy of promotion in clinical.
