Abstract

Corneal diseases may limit surgical techniques during cataract surgery and may lead to undesirable surgical results. Furthermore, cataract surgery may contribute to the progression of preexisting corneal diseases [1]. Preoperative identification of corneal morbidity and appropriate perioperative management, including relevant surgical techniques, are essential for surgery to have optimal outcomes.
