NCT ID NCT07581366

First seen May 13, 2026 ยท Last updated May 13, 2026

Summary

This study tested a new method called posterior flap hydration to seal the small cuts made in the eye during cataract surgery. 53 adults with cataracts and visible gaps in their incisions were included. The goal was to see if this technique makes the wound tighter right after surgery and how the eye heals the next day. This could help reduce the risk of infection after surgery.
