NCT ID NCT07265388
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a scoring system called the SUCCESS Score to see if it can predict which people with Fuchs dystrophy will need a cornea transplant after cataract surgery. Researchers will follow 250 adults who have both Fuchs dystrophy and cataracts. The goal is to improve decision-making and avoid unnecessary transplants.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this scoring system could help doctors better predict which Fuchs dystrophy patients will need a cornea transplant after cataract surgery, leading to more personalized care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The score may not be accurate enough to change clinical practice, and results may not apply to all patients.
