Background: Cataract is the major cause of blindness and visual impairment in developing countries like India. Refractive errors are frequently associated with age related cataract. Studies have shown that an association exists between myopia and onset of cataract. Axial length has also been recognized as a risk factor for development of cataract. Aim: To study the association of refractive errors and senile cataract and association between axial length in refractive errors with senile cataract. Objective: To find out association of axial length in refractive errors and senile cataract, to find out percentage of patients in senile cataract with nuclear, cortical and posterior subscapular cataract presentation and to study the refractive error with axial length in patients having senile cataract.
