We examined postoperative corneal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) present after combined phacoemulsification with either microhook ab interno trabeculotomy (μLOT-Phaco) or goniotomy, using the Kahook Dual Blade (KDB-Phaco). Retrospective study: A total of 45 eyes underwent μLOT-Phaco and KDB-Phaco (LOT-Phaco) procedures, with 21 eyes that underwent cataract surgery alone used as controls. Visual acuity and corneal HOAs, coma-like aberrations, and spherical-like aberrations were analyzed before and at 1, 2, and 3 months after the surgeries. Risk factors that could potentially influence HOAs were evaluated. No significant postoperative changes were noted for corneal HOAs, coma-like aberrations, and spherical-like aberrations after cataract surgery alone. The mean corneal HOAs, coma-like aberrations, and spherical-like aberrations were 0.222 ± 0.115 μm, 0.203 ± 0.113 μm, and 0.084 ± 0.043 μm at baseline and 0.326 ± 0.195 μm (p < 0.001), 0.302 ± 0.289 μm (p = 0.03), and 0.150 ± 0.115 μm (p < 0.001) at 3 months after LOT-Phaco, respectively. Results of the analysis for risk factors suggested that a longer incision in Schlemm’s canal could influence corneal HOAs, coma-like aberrations, and spherical-like aberrations after LOT-Phaco. Although no significant postoperative changes were observed in corneal HOAs and coma-like or spherical-like aberrations after cataract surgery alone, a significant increase in corneal HOAs and coma-like or spherical-like aberrations remained after the LOT-Phaco procedure.
