| Abstract | PURPOSE: To evaluate the difference between the predicted and actual postoperative refractions after combined vitrectomy and cataract surgeries with a posterior capsulectomy. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study of 33 eyes of 33 patients who underwent combined vitrectomy and cataract surgeries in our hospital between March 2013 and May 2014. The patients were divided into 2 groups: those who underwent a posterior capsulectomy (group A) and those who underwent combined vitrectomy and cataract surgeries (group B). The actual refractive errors were analyzed 3 months after surgery using spherical equivalent. We compared the results between the predicted and actual refractive errors in the two groups. RESULTS: Group A consisted of 25 eyes of 25 patients and group B of 8 eyes of 8 patients. In group A, the average difference between predicted and actual postoperative refractive errors was -0.16 +/- 0.38 D (p = 0.083). The predicted refraction was -0.33 +/- 0.46 D and actual refraction was -0.49 +/- 0.55 D in group A. There was no statistically significant difference between the predicted refraction and actual refractive errors in group A (p = 0.083). In group B, the average difference between predicted and actual postoperative refractive errors was 0.27 +/- 0.29 D (p = 0.078). Additionally, the predicted refraction was -0.49 +/- 0.77 D and actual refraction was -0.22 +/- 0.59 D. The difference between the predicted refraction and actual refractive errors in group B was not statistically significant (p = 0.078). CONCLUSIONS: When a posterior capsulectomy is performed during combined vitrectomy and cataract surgery, no significant difference in refractive errors between the predicted refraction and actual refractive errors was observed 3 months after surgery. Compared with combined vitrectomy and cataract surgeries only, a small amount of myopic refractive change tended to occur 3 months after surgery. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
