Influence of Cataract Surgery on Corneal Biomechanical Properties in Patients With Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome

Sponsor: Kata Culina

Summary

Pseudoexfoliation syndrome is associated with alterations in the biomechanical properties of the cornea. This prospective observational cohort study aims to evaluate changes in corneal biomechanical properties after standard phacoemulsification cataract surgery in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome compared with patients without pseudoexfoliation syndrome. Corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF) will be measured using the Ocular Response Analyzer before surgery and at postoperative day 1, day 7, and day 30. The study will enroll patients undergoing routine cataract surgery to compare postoperative changes in CH and CRF between the pseudoexfoliation and control groups.
