Cataract surgery tech showdown: laser vs standard handpieces

NCT ID NCT05119270

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study was designed to compare two newer technologies for cataract surgery: a femtosecond laser and a special handpiece that monitors eye pressure. The goal was to see if these tools cause less damage to the cornea and use less energy than standard methods. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available.
