Surgery efficiency study for combined eye procedures
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks at how efficiently surgeons perform a combined cataract and vitrectomy surgery. It may help improve future surgical techniques. You may qualify if you are already scheduled for this specific type of eye surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be able to understand and sign a consent form.
- You must already be scheduled for a combined cataract and vitrectomy procedure.
- The surgery must use a specific small tool size (25-gauge).
- You cannot be pregnant.
- You cannot have had this same type of surgery before in the same eye.

This study looks at how well your vision works and how different cataract surgery lens choices perform. It may help researchers better understand what affects sight after cataract surgery.
This study combines cataract surgery with a procedure to improve fluid drainage in the eye, which may help lower eye pressure in people with glaucoma. It aims to see if this combined approach is safe and effective for both open-angle and angle-closure glaucoma.
This trial tests whether a special eye scan (OCT) can help guide eye surgery during the operation. It may improve how surgeons see and target the exact eye structures they need to treat.
This trial compares two ways of doing cataract surgery to see which one gives better vision sooner after the operation. It may help you if you have a dense cataract and are planning surgery.
This trial compares two types of surgery for people with a retinal detachment who still have their natural lens (no prior cataract surgery). One group gets vitrectomy alone; the other gets vitrectomy plus the lens removed at the same time. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes.
This study compares two different machines used for cataract surgery (phacoemulsification) to see if one is better. If you're having cataract surgery on both eyes, this trial might help improve your treatment.
