Study of the Effect of Aspheric Lenses in Patients With Fuch's Dystrophy

NCT02109276 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2016-09-27

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The proposed study will recruit patients with mild to moderate Fuch's dystrophy who need cataract surgery alone. They will be randomly assigned to receive either spheric or aspheric lenses. If both eyes of a patient need surgery, we will implant the same type of lens in each eye in order to prevent imbalanced vision. We will measure their contrast sensitivity and higher order aberrations before surgery and 3 months after surgery. We will compare the change in these values between the two groups.
