Fuchs dystrophy and cataract surgery: does the cornea behave differently?
NCT ID NCT07731945
First seen Jul 28, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This observational study compares corneal thickness six weeks after routine cataract surgery in people with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) versus those without the condition. Researchers aim to see whether FECD eyes swell more or recover differently after surgery. Participants undergo standard cataract surgery and routine eye exams, with no extra treatments or procedures.
