Summary

The investigators performed the current study to compare: 1) the pain scores by Visual Analogue Scale; 2) the cytokines concentrations in aqueous humor by human cytokine antibody array; 3) the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) concentrations by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); 4) the pupil behaviors by Image J between first-eye and second-eye in bilateral cataract patients undergoing sequential femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS). To our knowledge, this is the first intraindividual study investigating contralateral effect in FLACS. The findings from the current study may broaden our understanding on the mechanism of sympathetic reaction, help to improve clinical performances, and provide strong clinical guidance for cataract surgeons.

Conditions

  • Cataract

Interventions

OTHER

aqueous humor collection

Once the laser procedures were finished, the patient was transported to another surgery operating bed. Before the eyeball was opened, 100-200 μL of aqueous humor was obtained from the anterior chamber via an ultra-thin needle through the paracentesis site of cornea.
