Abstract
The updated evidence-based comprehensive cataract complexity score system is a useful tool for the stratification of case complexity and guides appropriate case selection to match trainee experience. Higher complexity scores were associated with greater intraoperative and postoperative complications and lower postoperative distance visual acuity. Patients with higher scores should be made aware of the guarded prognosis when obtaining consent.
