The goal of this study is to study the restoration of quality of vision, expressed as straylight, in the immediate period after cataract surgery with two different phacoemulsification technologies.
Cataract is an opacification of the lens. With cataract surgery, the lens is surgically removed after which a clear artificial intraocular lens is implanted. For patients, it is important that they regain functional vision as quickly as possible after surgery as a limited vision may increase the risk of falling and increases the dependency on other people. Surgical removal of the lens is done with a phacoemulsification system. Differences between phacoemulsification systems are the used pump type, the way the needle oscillates, and the fluid dynamics of the system. It is unknown whether any of the available systems offer an advantage on the amount of corneal oedema that develops after surgery and, therefore, results in a more rapid restoration of functional vision.
