AIM: To study the relative effects of high and low fluidic parameters on endothelial cell density (ECD), @entity2840 ( @entity2840 ), and @entity1020 ( @entity1020 ) after phacoemulsification with torsional ultrasound. SETTINGS AND DESIGN: Prospective, randomized clinical trial based on a tertiary eye hospital. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: The study included 65 @entity1 in each group. @entity1 were randomized to either the high or the low flow group using a computerized random number table. The study was @entity1 and examiner masked. All @entity1 underwent phacoemulsification with torsional ultrasound. Visual acuity, ECD, @entity2840 , and @entity1020 were measured for all @entity1 preoperatively at 2 weeks and 6 weeks postoperatively. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: The Shapiro-Wilks test was used to assess the normality of the data. Mann-Whitney U-test with the P value set at 0.05 was used to compare the two groups. RESULTS: Cumulative dissipated energy was significantly higher in the low flow group (16.44    9.07 vs. 11.74    6.68; P = 0.002). No statistically significant difference was noted between the two groups in the ECD, @entity2840 , @entity1020 , or corrected distance visual acuity at the end of 6 weeks. CONCLUSIONS: No significant difference was noted in the postoperative outcome between high and low flow groups. Parameters can be modified to suit the surgeon's preference, as both high and low flow parameters were found to have comparable postoperative outcomes.
