The study aims to investigate whether adjusting intraocular pressure (IOP) settings to near physiologic levels during cataract surgery could potentially lead to better surgical outcomes, particularly in terms of corneal clarity in the post-operative period.
The study aims to investigate whether adjusting intraocular pressure (IOP) settings to near physiologic levels during cataract surgery could potentially lead to better surgical outcomes, particularly in terms of corneal clarity in the post-operative period. By comparing these two different IOP settings, we can determine the impact of IOP on surgical efficiency and the quality of post-operative results, especially in relation to corneal health.
