Summary

This trial tests whether listening to personalized music during cataract surgery can reduce anxiety and pain. About 100 patients having surgery under local anesthesia will either receive standard care or also listen to their preferred instrumental music (60-100 beats per minute) for about 30 minutes. Anxiety and pain levels are measured before and after surgery to see if the music makes a difference.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Structured personalized music intervention
What this could lead to
If effective, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to ease anxiety and pain during cataract surgery, improving patient comfort.
What could go wrong
The trial is small and early, and results may not apply to all patients. Music may not significantly reduce anxiety or pain for everyone.
