Outcomes of Cataract Surgery: Improvement in Visual Acuity and Subjective Visual Function After Surgery in the First, Second, and Both Eyes
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
There seems to be a benefit associated with restoring binocular vision in this population of patients with bilateral, cataract-induced visual impairment, and this findings support the policy recommendation that cataracts surgery in both eyes remains the appropriate treatment.
