In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) parameters follow-up. IVCM parameters follow-up of postoperative 2 weeks (2 W), 1 month (1 M), 3 months (3 M), 6 months (6 M), and 12 months (12 M) are shown. P < 0.05 is defined as statistically significant between the two groups at the same time point (*), P < 0.01 is defined as highly significant (**) and P < 0.001 is defined as extremely significant (***). a Significantly higher mean microcysts area in Phaco-ExPRESS at 3 M, 6 M, and 12 M postoperatively (P < 0.001). b Significantly lower hyperreflective dot density in Phaco-Trab at 1 M, 3 M, 6 M, and 12 M postoperatively when compared with the other group (P < 0.001). c Significantly higher connective tissue grade in Phaco-Trab at 1 M, 3 M, 6 M, and 12 M postoperatively (P = 0.01 at 1 M, P = 0.001 at 3 M and P < 0.001 at 6 M and 12 M)
