Method of a Confocal Microscopy in Investigation of the Operational Wound Zone (in vivo) After a Cataract Phacoemulsification

The results of the corneal wound zone investigations with a confocal microscope have been analyzed. 10 patients after a bimanual and 10 patients after a coaxial phacoemulsification of cataract took part in the study. It seems reasonable to conclude that the revealed alteration rate and character do not depend on a phacoemulsification method (bimanual or coaxial).
