Study Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether an enhanced monofocal intraocular lens targeted for monovision can improve visual outcomes in patients with cataract and high myopia (axial length ≥ 26 mm).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
For people with cataract and high myopia, does an enhanced monofocal intraocular lens targeted for monovision provide greater binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity compared with targeting myopia in both eyes? Does an enhanced monofocal intraocular lens targeted for monovision provide comparable binocular uncorrected intermediate and near visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, reading ability, spectacle independence, stereopsis, and photic phenomena compared with targeting myopia in both eyes?
Researchers will compare an enhanced monofocal intraocular lens targeted for monovision with one targeted for myopia in both eyes to determine whether the monovision strategy is more effective.
Participants will:
Undergo phacoemulsification with enhanced monofocal intraocular lens implantation. Attend follow-up visits at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after cataract surgery.

Inclusion Criteria
- •Age between 18 and 85 years (inclusive), no gender restrictions;
- •Scheduled to undergo bilateral phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation;
- •Axial length ≥ 26.0 mm in both eyes;
- •Desire for postoperative spectacle independence;

- •Patients with intraoperative or postoperative complications (ie, intraoperative posterior capsular rupture, zonular dehiscence, secondary glaucoma, etc.);

- •A history of intraocular surgery;
- •Severe chronic systemic diseases, psychiatric disorders, dementia, hearing impairments, or mobility limitations that would interfere with understanding of the monovision design, attendance at follow-up visits, or completion of questionnaires.
Arms & Interventions
Monovision group
Both eyes will be implanted with enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses, with the dominant eye targeted for -0.5 diopters (D) and the nondominant eye for -2.0 D.
Intervention: Enhanced monofocal intraocular lens implantation (monovision strategy) (Procedure)
Bilateral myopia group
Both eyes will be implanted with enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses, with each eye targeted for -2.0 D.
Intervention: Enhanced monofocal intraocular lens implantation (bilateral myopia strategy) (Procedure)
