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

Summary

This study compares having cataract surgery on both eyes the same day versus waiting weeks between surgeries. Researchers want to see if same-day surgery is just as safe, costs less, and improves quality of life. About 242 adults in France with cataracts in both eyes will take part.

Active substance

cataract surgery (procedure)

What this could lead to

If same-day surgery proves as safe and cheaper, it could reduce wait times and travel burden for patients with cataracts in both eyes.

What could go wrong

This is a mid-sized trial in France only, so results may not apply elsewhere. Same-day surgery carries a small risk of complications in both eyes at once.
