About this trial

This is an interventional supportive care trial for Cataract focused on measuring age related cataract, phacoemulsification, anterior capsule polishing, optical coherence tomography, anterior chamber depth

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • bilateral age-related cataract
  • good overall physical constitution
  • uneventful surgeries of both eyes with in-the-bag IOL implantation

Exclusion Criteria:

  • history of intraocular surgery or laser therapy
  • history of ocular trauma or ocular disease
  • high myopia
  • diabetes
  • severe retinal pathology
  • patients who could not return on time

Sites / Locations

  • Department of Ophtalmology,Qianfoshan Hospital,Shandong University

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Effective Lens Position
Effective lens position was measured with anterior chamber depth 1 day,1 week, 1 month as well as 3 months and 6 months postoperatively using anterior segment Optical Coherence Tomograph. The anterior chamber depth defined as the distance between the posterior surface of the corneal and anterior surface of intraocular lens in the pupil center along the optical axis. The actual movement of intraocular lenses was defined as the root mean square of changes in the effective lens position at each visit.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Uncorrected Visual Acuity(UCVA)
The UCVA was recorded in logMAR units at each vist
Refractive Error
auto refraction was performed at each visit. Spherical equivalent refraction (SER) (sphere +cylinder/2) was used in subsequent calculations.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate effects of anterior capsule polishing on effective lens position (ELP) and actual axial movement of the intraocular lens (IOL) by measuring anterior chamber depth (ACD) patients with bilateral age-related cataract undergo bilateral uneventful cataract surgeries with in-the- bag implantation of a single-piece hydrophobic acrylic foldable IOL (SN60WF). The anterior capsule was extensively polished using Whitman Shepherd Double-Ended Capsule Polisher in one eye randomly, and the other not. The ACD was measured 1day, 1 week, 1month, 3 months and 6 months with anterior segment Optical Coherence Tomograph (AS-OCT) postoperatively. The actual axial movement of IOL was defined as the root mean square (RMS) of the change in ELP at each visit.
