Measurement of Antioxidant Activity on Postoperative Inflammation in Patients Undergoing Ophthalmic Surgery

December 2, 2024 updated by: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Effects of Laser Species and Ocular Antioxidant Activity on Postoperative Inflammation and Visual Prognosis in Patients Undergoing Ophthalmic Surgery - a Comparative Study

This trial hypothesized that novel laser refractive surgery techniques (PRK, LASIK, SMILE) or laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACAS) could suppress postoperative inflammation and improve recovery in patients by reducing oxidative stress generated by the surgical procedure. It is also intended to verify whether the new laser technology is necessary for clinical use in groups with low antioxidant activity through the detection of antioxidant activity in the eyes of patients.
