Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Visibility of the anterior lens capsule after the injection of dye

    The visibility of the anterior lens capsule after the injection of dye, should be graduated as Bad OR Fair OR Good OR Fine

    during the cataract surgery

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Degree of impregnation of the dye

    during the surgery

  • usefulness of the dye

    at the end of the cataract surgery

Study Arms (1)

dye of lutein, zeaxanthin, trypan blue

EXPERIMENTAL

during the surgery will be evaluated if the dye is suitable for dyeing anterior lens capsule

Other: dye of lutein, zeaxanthin, trypan blue

Interventions

dye composed of lutein, zeaxanthin, trypan blue

Also known as: combination of lutein, zeaxanthin, trypan blue
dye of lutein, zeaxanthin, trypan blue
