A statistical study of a 150 patients who had surgically induced astigmatism after cataract extraction was carried during the period of 20/11/2003-20/6/2005, in AL-ASSAD University Hospital in Lattakia. Cases were divided according to age, sex, kind of incision and kind of sutures-axis of astigmatism. Each case of astigmatism was studied before and after operation. We conclude that small corneal incision is better than large, the continuous suture is better than discontinuous and nylon suture is better than silk in their effects on astigmatism after operation
