CATARACT

This study compares two different cataract surgery techniques to see which one helps patients see better in the first day after surgery. Researchers will randomly assign 128 adults (ages 50-90) with age-related cataracts to receive either intracapsular or supracapsular phacoemuls…

This study is testing a new medical device designed to perform two types of eye surgery—cataract removal and vitrectomy (retina surgery)—in one system. Researchers will enroll 205 adults who need one or both of these procedures to see if the device is as safe and works as well as…

This study is testing a specialized lens implant used during cataract surgery. The goal is to fine-tune the lens calculations to give patients more predictable, accurate vision, especially for those with astigmatism. Researchers will measure how well the lens corrects vision and …

This study aims to find the best way to protect the eyes of people with diabetes who are having cataract surgery. It will compare whether giving one protective eye injection during surgery is as good as giving that injection plus two more injections afterward. The goal is to see …

This project aims to fix a broken link in eye care in rural Assam, India. Currently, most patients identified with cataracts or vision problems during community screenings never make it to the hospital for treatment. The study will work with 2000 adults to understand and remove t…

This study aims to create and test an artificial intelligence (AI) system designed to detect and classify major eye diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy. Researchers will use about 15,000 existing eye scan images from patients in Costa Rica to train and val…

This study aims to improve the accuracy of calculating the power for artificial lenses implanted during cataract surgery. Researchers will use different eye scanning devices and artificial intelligence to measure and predict the size of the natural lens, a factor not currently us…

This study is testing a new approach to cataract surgery for people who are also very nearsighted. Researchers want to see if implanting a specific type of lens, set up in a 'monovision' style (one eye for distance, one for near), improves distance vision without glasses compared…

This study is testing a new type of lens implant, called the PureSee™ lens, during a combined eye surgery for people who have both cataracts and a specific corneal disease (Fuchs dystrophy). The goal is to see if this lens improves vision, especially for tasks at arm's length lik…

This study compares two new types of artificial lenses implanted during cataract surgery. Researchers want to see which lens provides better vision at arm's length (like for computer use) without glasses. The study will involve 30 patients, with each patient receiving a different…

This study aims to find the best way to keep patients comfortable and calm during cataract surgery. It will compare using just numbing eye drops to using eye drops plus one or two calming medications given through an IV. Researchers will measure patient satisfaction, comfort leve…

This study compares two common eye drop treatments for people with dry eye disease who are having cataract surgery. About 60 participants will be randomly assigned to use either Rebamipide or Diquafosol drops in the eye having surgery, starting one month before the procedure and …

This study is for people with both cataracts and a common type of glaucoma who need cataract surgery. It will compare two different artificial lenses to see which one gives better vision at different distances and causes fewer visual side effects like glare. The goal is to find o…

This study aims to establish a baseline and track progress on key eye health indicators in Xinxing County, China. It will enroll 3,000 local residents, including school children, seniors, and diabetic patients. Researchers will conduct vision tests, eye exams, and questionnaires …

This study aims to see if using an ultrasound device helps medical staff place IV lines in children more quickly and with fewer needle sticks. It will observe 500 children under 18 who need an IV for outpatient procedures. Researchers will compare the time and number of attempts …
