Official Title: Subfoveal Choroidal Thickness After Femtosecond Laser-assisted Cataract Surgery for Age-related Cataracts
Brief Summary: To compare the effects of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and conventional phacoemulsification surgery (CPS) on subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) in age-related cataracts.
Detailed Summary: It is not clear whether femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) alters retinal and choroidal thickness. The goal of the present study was to determine the changes of retinal and choroidal thicknesses in patients who have undergone FLACS compared to patients who have undergone conventional phacoemulsification surgery (CPS).
Sponsor: Sun Yat-sen University
Current Primary Outcome: The change of subfoveal choroidal thickness [ Time Frame: baseline, at 1 day after surgery, 7 days after surgery, 1 month after surgery, and 3 months after surgery ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome: The change of subfoveal retinal thickness [ Time Frame: baseline, at 1 day after surgery, 7 days after surgery, 1 month after surgery, and 3 months after surgery ]
Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
