What is IATS?
The I nfant A phakia T reatment S tudy ( IATS ) is a randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical trial sponsored by the National Eye Institute (NEI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) . This clinical trial will try to determine whether infants with a unilateral, congenital cataract are more likely to develop better vision after cataract extraction surgery if they are treated with a contact lens or if they receive an intraocular lens (IOL) implant.
