Objective: To study and compare the incidence, amount, type and course of astigmatism in conventional ECCE and manual small incision cataract surgery. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective study of 100 consecutive patients, assigned to undergo conventional ECCE (50 cases) and manual small incision cataract surgery (50 cases). Results: The surgery induced astigmatism (SIA) was With The Rule(WTR) in conventional ECCE group at first week the mean surgery induced astigmatism was 3.02D, 1.82D at sixth week and 1.12D at third month. The induced astigmatism in MSICS was Against The Rule (ATR), at first week the mean SIA was 1.41D,1.61D at sixth week and 1.71D at third month. Conclusions: Manual small incision cataract surgery induces minimal amount of ATR astigmatism in early post-operative period compared to conventional ECCE, which induces moderate amount of WTR astigmatism. Post-operative astigmatic shift was observed till the end of 3rd month in conventional ECCE. Whereas MSICS group, the astigmatism was stabilized at 6th week in majority of the cases.
