- Abstract
- Background: Cataract surgery is the most commonly performed elective surgical procedure and is associated with significant improvement in quality of life. However, recent studies evaluating the trustworthiness of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) have revealed conflicting recommendations, discrepancies in evidence quality, a lack of methodological rigor and transparency, and potential conflicts of interest among members of guideline development groups. These findings undermine the validity of CPGs, limiting their usefulness as evidence-based resources for clinicians.
