Purpose: To describe current cataract surgery practice patterns and trends among Korean ophthalmologists. Methods: A survey was conducted among members of the Korean Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery in October2020. Of the 998 questionnaires, 262 (26.3%) were received for analysis. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics andcompared with those of previous surveys. Results: The largest percentage of respondents (39%) had <5 years of practical experience, and 40% had >11 years of practicalexperience. The average, median, and mode monthly volumes of cataract surgeries performed by the Korean Society ofCataract and Refractive Surgery members were 31, 20, and 10 cases, respectively. Topical anesthesia was administered by85% of the respondents. For intraocular lens (IOL) calculations, 96% of the respondents used optical biometry. The proportionof surgeons providing femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery increased significantly from 5% in 2018 to 29% in 2020. This increase was accompanied by an increase in the multifocal IOLs. Those who implant multifocal IOL for >10% of their casesincreased from 16% (2018) to 29% (2020). Topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were prescribed postoperativelyby 76% of the respondents. Most respondents (70%) prescribed these anti-inflammatory drugs for 4 weeks. Conclusions: This survey provided a comprehensive update on current cataract surgery practice in the Republic of Korea. The results highlighted the increasing use of premium IOLs, femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery, optical biometry,and topical anesthesia to better meet the patients’ needs.
