Intraocular Pressure and Foveal Thickness After Phacoemulsification

We found initial hypotony, an IOP spike during six to nine hours, and a decrease of IOP at one month and two months postoperatively. An initial increase of the foveal thickness, a significant reduction at nine hours and 12 hours, and an equivocal increase at one month or two months postoperatively were also noted. A significant negative correlation between IOP and foveal thickness was shown.
