Eye surgery showdown: one step or two for retinal detachment?
NCT ID NCT06997874
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at the best way to fix a detached retina, a serious eye problem that can cause vision loss. It compares doing one surgery (vitrectomy) alone versus doing it together with cataract surgery at the same time. The goal is to see which approach gives better vision, fewer complications, and is more cost-effective for adults aged 50 and older.
