NCT ID NCT06616506
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will enroll 500,000 people with high myopia and cataracts to develop an artificial intelligence model that helps doctors calculate the correct lens power and grade cataracts more accurately. The goal is to improve vision outcomes and reduce complications after surgery. Participants must have an axial length of 26 mm or more and complete at least one month of follow-up after surgery.
