Trial summary

Congenital cataract is the main cause of form deprivation amblyopia in children. Current studies confirm that form deprivation amblyopia affects the macular development. However, there are different opinions about the effect of amblyopia on the macular thickness . Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: To Observe and Determine Macular Thickness Changes Before and After Cataract Surgery

Congenital cataract is the main cause of form deprivation amblyopia in children. Current studies confirm that form deprivation amblyopia affects the macular development. However, there are different opinions about the effect of amblyopia on the macular thickness . Investigators have performed "cataract extraction with IOL implantation" on children with bilateral and unilateral congenital cataract. Investigators used OCT biometry to measure children's the macular thickness before and after surgery..Average sectional total thickness was automatically determined by the instrument's software using a modified Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) circle grid (fovea, inner ring, and outer ring: 1 mm, 3 mm, and 6 mm. Investigators dynamically observed changes in macular to explore the retinal mechanism of form deprivation amblyopia and help guide the clinical correct understanding of postoperative follow-up time.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing cataract surgery in people with Macular and Congenital Cataract, run by yin ying zhao at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

macular thickness (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
