ABSTRACT
This review summarizes data collected by the Swedish National Cataract Register (NCR), which by the end of 2022 contained data on more than 2.6 million cataract surgeries between 1992-2022. During these 31 years, the cataract surgery rate (CSR) rose from 3 700 to 14 407. The coverage of NCR is very high, including 93% of all cataract procedures in Sweden during the last decade. A clear trend is that the procedure is performed in eyes with increasingly high visual acuity. The proportion of patients with Snellen 0.5 or worse in the first eye at surgery has decreased from 88% in 2007 to 69% in 2022. Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) have been registered with the Catquest-9SF questionnaire since 2008, demonstrating stable favorable outcomes. Surgical complications have decreased; endophthalmitis has decreased from 0.10% to below 0.02%, and posterior capsule rupture from 2.8% to 0.6%.
