Anesthesia types and eye response after planned ENT surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares different types of general anesthesia by checking how your pupils (the black part of the eye) respond after surgery. It may help doctors understand which anesthesia options are better for eye-related side effects after planned ear, nose, or throat operations.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 to 99 years old
- Be having a planned (elective) ENT surgery under general anesthesia
- Be generally healthy for anesthesia (ASA I or II)
- You must not take antidepressants, tranquilizers, or other psychiatric medicines
- Have no history of mental illness, brain/nerve problems, or other nerve/psychiatric conditions that affect the brain
- You should not have eye problems and should not have memory/thinking difficulties before surgery

This trial looks at whether people’s anxiety before ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgery affects how much pain medicine (opioids) they need after surgery. It may help doctors better plan pain control based on anxiety level and possibly gender-related patterns.
This study looks at how your eye pupils respond to light as a way to predict how much pain you might feel when sedation (sleep medicine) is stopped after heart surgery. The goal is to help doctors better manage your pain during recovery.
This study compares two types of anesthesia (propofol and sevoflurane) to see how they affect eye pressure and blood flow during a procedure called cyclophotocoagulation, which treats glaucoma. If you are scheduled for this eye surgery, the study helps find the safest anesthesia option.
This study explores how light exposure during and after anesthesia may affect your recovery, sleep quality, and comfort. Researchers want to understand if light timing can improve how you feel after surgery.
This study tests whether measuring how a child's pupils (the dark circles in the eyes) respond to light can predict which children might have breathing problems after receiving pain medication during tonsil surgery. The goal is to help doctors catch and prevent serious breathing issues before they happen.
This study compares two types of general anesthesia for older adults (70+) having planned non-heart, non-brain surgery that lasts at least 2 hours. The goal is to see which type might be better for preserving thinking and memory after surgery.
