Low IOP settings resulted in less inflammation and less corneal trauma, as evidenced by a smaller drop in endothelial cell density and less postop corneal edema, when compared to high IOP settings. Retinal parameters did not change significantly. The different outcomes did not result in a difference in visual acuity.
