abstract = {Purpose:.To investigate the occurrence of corneal incision-induced astigmatism following small incision extracapsular cataract extraction through a superotemporal incision combined with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Methods:.A total of 255 cases (301 eyes) who received small incision extracapsular cataract extraction through a superotemporal incision with IOL implantation in the Department of Ophthalmology, Yuyan District Hospital of Guiyang were enrolled in this clinical trial..Postoperative best-corrected visual acuity and astigmatism were measured. The patients underwent 24-week follow-up. Results: In total, 166 patients (65.1%, 166 eyes) completed follow-up..Astigmatism gradually declined between 1 and 12-week postoperatively, and stabilized after 12 weeks. Among 166 patients,.125(75.3%).had astigmatism > 0.5 D at 24 weeks post-operatively,.showing mostly with-the-rule astigmatism. Visual acuity steadily improved up to 12 weeks, and tended to stabilize subsequently..Over the period of 24-week postoperatively,.visual acuity was negatively correlated with astigmatism (r=-0.691,P},
