Change in Subfoveal Choroidal Thickness following Cataract Surgery Imaged with Enhanced Depth Imaging Optical Coherence Tomography.

Cataract surgery leads to an increase in subfoveal choroidal thickness. While no statistically significant correlation to the phacoemulsification parameters could be established, this might be because of a selection bias due to the technological constraints of the OCT. Nevertheless, the choroid might play a central role in early- and late-onset complications.
