Validation of the Modified Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA Blind) for the Diagnosis of Postoperative Neurocognitive Disorders in Patients With Corneal Pathology in Russia.

February 19, 2026 updated by: Alexander Romanov, The S.N. Fyodorov Eye Microsurgery State Institution
Long-term observation has shown that patients with visual impairment often develop cognitive impairments. Due to the fact that patients who are planning to undergo corneal transplantation may have initial cognitive deficits, assessing cognitive function is an important aspect of work for both the anesthesiologist and the operating surgeon. Given the high significance of assessing cognitive function after anesthesia in ophthalmic surgery patients, it is relevant to adapt and validate the Russian version of the MoCA Blind test for subsequent use in clinical practice.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
postoperative neurocognitive disorders
Time Frame: From the moment of inclusion in the study until the end of treatment 90 days later
Postoperative neurocognitive disorders were identified by comparing the results of neuropsychological tests performed before surgery and on the 90th day after surgery. An individual Z-score was used for each domain of the test.
From the moment of inclusion in the study until the end of treatment 90 days later
