About this trial
Although cataract surgery is an effective treatment method for improving visual function, it is important to evaluate the quality of life, daily living activities, independence level and psychosocial well-being of patients in the postoperative period. Changes in visual function can affect individuals' ability to live their daily lives, their perception of the risk of falling, and their adaptation to post-treatment care processes. For this reason, the recovery process after cataract surgery should be evaluated not only with clinical results, but also with patient-centered outcome criteria. The aim of this research is to investigate the preoperative and postoperative period in patients undergoing cataract surgery 1. and 3. The aim is to prospectively evaluate changes in care compliance, fear of falling, and vision-related quality of life during monthly follow-ups.
