NCT06754358

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the perioperative parameters of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) using two laser systems. Participants will: Undergo FLACS using LenSx or Z8 femtosecond laser system Visit the clinic before the operation and 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month after the operation for checkups and tests Complete clinical measurements and dry eye questionnaires

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • ocular staining score

    The ocular staining score ranged from 0 to 12. A score of 0 indicated no corneal or conjunctival staining with fluorescein or lissamine green dye, respectively. A score of 12 indicated severe staining of the cornea and conjunctiva with confluent and central fluorescein staining, the presence of corneal filaments, and confluent areas of lissamine green of the bulbar conjunctiva of greater than or equal to 4 mm2.

    1 month after operation

Secondary Outcomes (17)

  • ocular staining score

    1 day and 1 week after operation

  • phacoemulsification time

  • ultrasound power

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Chinese Han patients aged 40 years or older
  • clinical diagnosis of age-related cataracts;
  • underwent FLACS with insertion of a posterior chamber IOL for the first eye.

You may not qualify if:

  • coexisting macular pathologies such as epiretinal membrane, macular hole or edema, or age-related macular degeneration. Patients with OCT scans of poor quality were excluded;
  • preoperative flare of more than 15ph/ms11, ECD\<2000cells/mm2 or any other corneal pathologies;
  • coexisting serious ocular diseases including uveitis, uncontrolled glaucoma, optic atrophy , amblyopia, retinopathies, or inflammatory pathology of the eye;
  • history of intraocular trauma, surgery, or retinal laser procedures;
  • usage of systemic or topical steroids or NSAIDs within one month prior to surgery;
  • patients with diabetes or any other systemic diseases that might confound the results or increase the risk for postoperative inflammation;
  • intraoperative complications such as capsule tear, hyphema, vitreous loss, iris manipulation, or miosis after laser pre treatment requiring intracameral injection of epinephrine;
  • ocular conditions contraindicating FLACS including poorly dilated pupils (\<5.0mm), narrow palpebral fissure, small hyperopic eyes with steep cornea (difficult to achieve suction), severe conjunctival chalasis, nystagmus, or lack of cooperation;
  • potentially pregnant women;
  • known sensitivity to concomitant medications used during perioperative period, participation in other clinical trial during the time of visit, or poor cooperation in diagnostic tests or non-compliance at follow-up.
