Methods to manage intra-operative floppy-iris syndrome and poor pupil dilation in cataract surgery: a randomised study

Intra-operative floppy-iris syndrome (IFIS) and poor pupil dilation are two factors that increase the risk of complications in cataract surgery. In this study different methods to manage IFIS and poor pupil dilation will be investigated. The use of a viscoadaptive OVD will be compared to the use of a dilating device such as the Malyugin Ring or iris hooks. Purpose is to observe which strategy results in the lowest aqueous flare post-operatively.
