Abstract
A study of changes of the corneal thickness after cataract extraction was carried out on 149 patients. Cataract extraction was performed with partial knife incision or "ab externo" incision. The corneal thickness was measured with a Haag-Streit pachometer prior to cataract extraction and 4 days to 6 months after the operation. The investigation showed that the postoperative increase of the corneal thickness returns as before the operation.
