Testing a new gel for cataract surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new gel-like device (IXIUM TWIN) used during cataract surgery to protect the eye. It may help make surgery smoother for people with cataracts who are already scheduled for the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a specific cataract replacement lens to see how safe it is and how well it improves vision. If you have cataracts in both eyes and are good candidate for cataract surgery, this lens may help you see more clearly after surgery.
This study tests three different tools used by surgeons to fold and insert a new artificial lens during cataract surgery. If you are already scheduled for surgery with a specific lens, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a new type of artificial lens (called KI-362-US1) that is placed in the eye during cataract surgery. Researchers want to confirm it is safe and helps people see better after cataract removal.
This trial tests new enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (special lens implants) to see if they improve vision after cataract surgery. It is for people with age-related cataracts in both eyes who are otherwise healthy.
This trial tests a new implant that releases medicine for glaucoma while you have cataract surgery. It may help lower eye pressure without using daily drops.
This study tests a new device to capture data from your eyes. It helps researchers learn how well the device works for different people.
