Eye opening size after cornea transplant surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks at how the size of a small hole made in the iris (the colored part of the eye) affects vision problems after a cornea transplant. It aims to find the best hole size to reduce glare and other visual disturbances.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for a cornea transplant (DMEK) at the University Hospital Leipzig.
- You will have a laser or surgical hole made in your iris as part of your care.
- You agree to fill out a questionnaire about your vision after surgery.

This trial checks how well you see in low light and low contrast after having cataract surgery with specific lens implants. It helps doctors understand which lenses work best in dim conditions.
This trial tests a type of corneal transplant (DMEK) in people who have had previous eye surgeries, such as vitrectomy or glaucoma surgery. It aims to see if the transplant works well even in these complicated cases.
This study tests special intraocular lenses (lenses placed inside the eye during cataract surgery) that are designed to work well in people who also need cornea transplantation (DMEK procedure). It aims to improve vision and reduce the need for glasses after surgery.
This study tests new ways to measure how well your eye sees after having cataract surgery with a special lens that helps with reading and distance. They'll take detailed measurements of your eye to improve future lens designs.
This Phase 3 trial compares outcomes from two cornea transplant procedures in people with FECD, a disease that makes the cornea swell and affect vision. It may help you and others by identifying which approach best supports clear vision and stable corneal thickness after surgery.
This study uses a special light-based imaging technique called Brillouin microscopy to measure the stiffness and mechanical properties of the cornea (the clear front part of the eye). It aims to understand how different corneal conditions and surgeries affect the cornea's health, which may help improve future treatments.
