Tiny needle shift could sharpen vision in Kids' eye surgery
NCT ID NCT07446829
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This trial tests two different needle insertion spots during YAMANE surgery, a procedure to fix a lens in the eye for children with congenital ectopia lentis (a condition where the eye's lens is out of place). Researchers will compare how accurate the lens placement is and how well children see 3 months after surgery. The goal is to find the safest and most effective needle position to improve vision and reduce complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- YAMANE surgical technique (procedure)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could identify the best needle insertion point for YAMANE surgery, leading to better vision and fewer complications for children with congenital ectopia lentis.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 54 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The study is not yet recruiting, and surgical outcomes can vary.
