    Graph showing central corneal thickness before surgery (CCT preoperative) and on the first postoperative day (CCT postoperative) after clear corneal cataract surgery as well as CCT of the pseudophakic control group (CCT intraocular lens [IOL]). Mean values with 95% confidence interval (CI) are given in micrometers.

    Graph showing corneal hysteresis before surgery (CH preoperative) and on the first postoperative day (CH postoperative) after clear corneal cataract surgery as well as corneal hysteresis of the pseudophakic control group (CH intraocular lens [IOL]). Mean values with 95% confidence interval (CI) are given in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg).
