Needle placement in Yamane lens surgery for young people
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares different places to insert the needle during the Yamane technique, a surgery to put an artificial lens in the eye. It aims to find the best spot to improve outcomes for children and teens.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 4 and 18 years old.
- You need surgery using the Yamane technique (a way to fix an artificial lens in the eye).
- You must be able to come back for check-ups for at least 3 months after the surgery.
- You or your parent/guardian must agree to join the study by signing a consent form.
- You cannot have other serious eye problems (like glaucoma, retinal detachment, or strabismus) — needing glasses is okay.
- You cannot be in another study that might interfere with this one.

This study tests whether placing the needle in different positions during a special type of lens implant surgery helps children see better. It aims to find the safest and most effective way to do the surgery.
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.
This study compares two methods of implanting a special lens (ICL) to correct high myopia, using either a 3D visualization system or a traditional microscope. The goal is to see which method causes less damage to the retina.
This trial compares two types of laser eye surgery (CLEAR and SMILE) to see which works better for nearsightedness and astigmatism. If you are eligible, it could help find the best option for your vision.
This study tests how well children adapt to special myopia control lenses. It aims to see if these lenses are comfortable and easy to wear for kids with nearsightedness.
This study tests a special spectacle lens designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children aged 6 to 8. It may be a good option for kids who are mildly to moderately nearsighted and haven't used other myopia control treatments.
