Comparing lens power methods during cataract surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to choose the right lens power during cataract surgery: one uses a special measurement during surgery, the other uses standard pre-surgery measurements. The goal is to see which method gives you better vision after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a cataract caused by aging.
- You are planning to have cataract surgery with ultrasound (phacoemulsification).
- You have a complete eye measurement and your eye length has been measured with a special device (interferometer).
- You do not have glaucoma, uncontrolled diabetic eye disease, pseudoexfoliation syndrome, age-related macular degeneration, dry eye syndrome, or other eye problems.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is looking at how special eye scans (optical coherence tomography, or OCT) can help doctors calculate the correct power of a cataract lens after you’ve had laser vision correction before. It may help improve how well your new lens matches your eye after prior laser treatment.
This study compares two ways to measure pupil size before and after cataract surgery using a tool called a pupil detector. It aims to see which method works better for patients getting a standard lens implant.
This trial tests two different devices that measure your eyes before cataract surgery to see which one helps doctors choose the best lens implant. The goal is to get your vision as close to perfect as possible after surgery.
This study compares two types of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) used during cataract surgery to improve vision at multiple distances. It is for people with cataracts in both eyes who have not had previous eye surgery.
This trial compares two types of artificial lenses (intraocular lenses) used during cataract surgery: enhanced monofocal and extended depth of focus (EDoF) lenses. It aims to see which lens gives better vision for everyday activities.
This study compares different types of artificial lenses (IOLs) placed during cataract surgery to see which helps your eyes adapt and improves your quality of life best. It is for people having cataract surgery on both eyes who have very little natural corneal curve (astigmatism).
