Impact of Capsular Tension Ring on Intraocular Lens Position in Retinitis Pigmentosa Cataract Patients

Effect of Capsular Tension Ring Implantation on Postoperative IOL Position in Retinitis Pigmentosa Patients With Cataract: a Multi-center, Randomized, Self-controlled Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a self-controlled randomized clinical trial to investigate the effect of capsular tension ring (CTR) implantation on intraocular lens (IOL) position in cataract patients with retinitis pigmentosa(RP). Each patient will receive CTR implantation in one eye, with the fellow eye serving as control. Postoperative outcomes, including visual acuity, IOL position, and postoperative complications will be compared between eyes.
