Eye structure and strength in pseudoexfoliation
This study looks at how the clear front part of the eye, called the cornea, changes in people with a condition called pseudoexfoliation. It may help doctors understand how this condition affects eye strength and vision after cataract surgery.
ThessalonikiAges 60–80 - NCT06733220Recruiting
Balance in strabismus patients having eye muscle surgery
This study looks at how strabismus (misaligned eyes) affects balance before and after surgery. It may help patients understand if their eye condition influences their stability.
Roma, RMAges 16–65 - NCT06737562Recruiting
Same-day vs separate-day cataract surgery: a cost study
This study compares having cataract surgery in both eyes on the same day versus a few weeks apart. It aims to find out which approach is more cost-effective and convenient for patients like you.
