Summary

There are indications in the literature that binocular vision disorders may occur after cataract and corneal refractive surgery. It is not clear whether these problems are new or represent decompensation of previously existing conditions. However, the following significant study limitations exist in the current literature: 1) lack of attention to non-strabismic binocular vision disorders, 2) incomplete binocular vision assessment, 3) a validated symptom survey was not used, 4) diplopia was typically the only symptom studied, 5) retrospective study design, and 6) in the few prospective studies the sample sizes were small.

Given the limitations in the current literature there is a need for further study of the prevalence and significance of binocular vision problems after cataract surgery and binocular vision and accommodative problems after corneal refractive surgery.

This study aims to determine whether there is an increase in the prevalence of binocular vision problems after cataract surgery and accommodative and binocular vision disorders after refractive surgery.

Conditions

  • Binocular Vision Disorder
  • Refractive Errors
  • Cataract

Interventions

PROCEDURE

cataract surgery

Cataract surgery in this study is only for the purpose of vision correction, not for the treatment of ocular pathology other than cataract, e.g., treatment for lens dislocation. The surgery used in this study should not be combined with other procedures, such as limbal relaxing incision for treating astigmatism.

PROCEDURE

Corneal refractive surgery

Corneal refractive surgery in this study is only for the purpose of vision correction, not for the treatment of ocular pathology other than refractive error, e.g., treatment for corneal scar. The surgery used in this study should not be combined with other procedures, such as limbal relaxing incision for treating severe astigmatism.
