Immediate sequential cataract surgery (ISCS) offers faster visual function rehabilitation than delayed sequential cataract surgery (DSCS). While initial outcomes favored ISCS, long-term results were similar, except for improved patient-reported visual function with ISCS.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Patient Outcomes Research

Background:

  • Immediate sequential cataract surgery (ISCS) remains a debated procedure.
  • Comparison of ISCS versus delayed sequential cataract surgery (DSCS) is crucial for clinical practice.
  • Patient preference plays a role in surgical approach selection.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare clinical and patient-reported outcomes of ISCS versus DSCS.
  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of performing cataract surgery on both eyes in one session.
  • To assess the impact of surgical timing on visual function and patient satisfaction.

Main Methods:

  • Nonrandomized study with patient preference allocation to ISCS or DSCS (2-month interval).
  • Measured binocular visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, stereopsis, and visual function (VF-14).

  • Statistical analysis included Mann-Whitney U-test and chi-squared/Fisher's exact tests.

    • Main Results:

    • Initially, outcomes were better in the ISCS group for up to 2 months.
    • After 4 months, objective measures showed no significant difference between ISCS and DSCS.
    • Patient-reported visual function (VF-14) improved significantly more and reached higher values in the ISCS group.

    Conclusions:

    • ISCS can provide more rapid visual function rehabilitation compared to DSCS.
    • Stringent patient selection and aseptic protocols are essential for safe ISCS.
    • ISCS may be a safe and effective option for experienced surgeons with appropriate patient selection.
