Summary

This study looks at whether improving how hospital wards and operating rooms work together can reduce waiting times for cataract surgery. Researchers will observe 360 patients aged 20 and older at a single eye hospital, track delays and errors, then test new procedures to see if they help. The goal is to make surgery faster and smoother for patients.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to shorter waiting times for cataract surgery patients by improving hospital workflow.
