Brief Summary   THIS IS A COMPARATIVE STUDY  OF VISUAL OUTCOME, SURGICAL INDUCED ASTIGMATISM AND CORNEAL ENDOTHELIAL CELL LOSS AFTER MANUAL SMALL INCISION CATARACT SURGERY BY VISCOEXPRESSION TECHNIQUE VERSUS PHACOSANDWICH TECHNIQUE, WHICH WILL BE CONDUCTED ON 140 VOLUNTARY PATIENTS FROM COMMUNITY OUTREACH DEPARTMENT AT SANKARA EYE HOSPITAL, GUNTUR. 140 PATIENTS WILL BE DIVIDED IN TO 2 GROUPS (A AND B)  (70 PATIENTS IN EACH). DURING MANUAL SICS, PATIENTS FROM GROUP A, NUCLEUS WILL BE DELIVERED USING VISCOEXPRESSION TECHNIQUE, AND IN PATIENTS FROM GROUP B, NUCLEUS WILL BE DELIVERED USING PHACOSANDWICH TECHNIQUE. WE MEASURE VISUAL OUTCOME, CORNEAL ASTIGMATISM AND CORNEAL ENDOTHELIAL CELL COUNT PRE OPERATIVELY, POST OPERATIVELY ON DAY 1 AND DAY 30. INCIDENCE OF ANY COMPLICATIONS WILL BE NOTED. THE DURATION OF THE STUDY IS 6 MONTHS.
