Treatments tested in this trial
UNITY VCS
DeviceUNITY® VCS is a CE-marked, FDA-approved ophthalmic microsurgical system that is indicated for both anterior segment (i.e., phacoemulsification and removal of cataracts) and posterior segment (i.e., vitreoretinal) ophthalmic surgery. The focus of this study will be on combined anterior-posterior segments surgery (phacovitrectomy).
CONSTELLATION
DeviceCONSTELLATION is a CE-marked, FDA-approved ophthalmic microsurgical system that is indicated for both anterior segment (i.e., phacoemulsification and removal of cataracts) and posterior segment (i.e., vitreoretinal) ophthalmic surgery. The focus of this study will be on combined anterior-posterior segments surgery (phacovitrectomy).
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Proportion of surgeons replying "efficient" or "very efficient" to the question, "How would you rate overall OR (operating room) efficiency of the console for the combined phaco-vitrectomy surgery (including set-up/tear-down)?
Responses will be collected on a 5-point scale where 1=Very Inefficient, 2=Inefficient, 3=Neutral, 4=Efficient, and 5=Very Efficient.
