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

Study Status: Withdrawn
Recruit Status: Withdrawn
Study Type: Interventional




Official Title: Contrast Sensitivity and Higher Order Aberrations After Spheric and Aspheric Intraocular Lens Implantation for Patients With Mild to Moderate Fuch's Endothelial Dystrophy.

Brief 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.
