Two stitch-free lens fixation methods compared
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares two safe, stitch-free surgical methods (Yamane vs. 4-flanged technique) for placing an artificial lens when natural lens support is absent. The goal is to find which approach gives better long-term results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need a new or repositioned artificial lens because the natural lens support is missing.
- You are willing to give informed consent and come for follow-up visits.
- You do not have any active inflammation in your eye.
- You do not have any condition making sutureless surgery unsafe (like a glaucoma drainage bleb or weak sclera).

This study compares two different surgical methods for placing a new artificial lens (IOL) during cataract surgery in people with pseudoexfoliation syndrome. It aims to find which method works best for these patients.
This study tests two types of intraocular lenses (IOLs) used in cataract surgery to see which one gives better visual function after the operation. It may help you see better at different distances without glasses.
This trial compares two methods for calculating how much an artificial lens tilts or shifts after cataract surgery. It aims to find which method gives more accurate measurements.
This study compares two types of advanced intraocular lenses (IOLs) used during cataract surgery to see which provides better vision at multiple distances. It may help you achieve clearer vision without relying heavily on glasses after surgery.
This trial tests a special technique to reposition and secure the eye's lens without stitches. It uses small hooks on the iris to hold the lens in place, which may help people with a partially dislocated lens avoid more complex surgery.
This study tests a new intraocular lens (IOL) to see how well it stays in place after cataract surgery. It may help improve vision outcomes for people with cataracts in both eyes.
