How artificial tears change eye measurements
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial checks how artificial tears (eye drops that add moisture) affect standard eye measurements, which are used for planning cataract surgery and other treatments. If you are an adult with generally healthy eyes, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You need to be able to sit still and follow instructions during an eye exam.
- You should not have had eye surgery, trauma, or treatments that make your eyes very sensitive to light.
- You must not be allergic to the artificial tear drops used in this study (sodium hyaluronate).
- You should not have severe dry eye, corneal damage, or other eye conditions that could affect the measurements.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how dry eye symptoms change after cataract surgery. It is for older adults (50–90) having simple cataract surgery for the first time, without other eye problems or certain health conditions.
This trial compares two different dry-eye eye drops to see which works better and is safe. You may be able to join if you’ve had dry eye for at least 3 months and meet specific eye-test results.
This study checks whether treating dry eyes before cataract surgery can change the way your eye's shape (astigmatism) is measured. It may help make your surgery more accurate.
This trial tests whether 0.28% sodium hyaluronate eye drops can help people with moderate to severe dry eye feel better. It's for patients who have significant dry eye symptoms and signs on an eye exam.
This study tests an eye drop to help stabilize the natural tear film on the surface of the eye. It may help people who have normal tear production but could benefit from better tear film stability.
This study checks if dry eye disease affects measurements doctors take before cataract surgery to choose the right lens implant. If you have dry eyes, the results may help make surgery more precise for you.
