Background: Cataracts are a common age-related condition where the lens of the eye starts to become cloudy.

This study aimed to test the hypothesis that most cataract surgery patients have recall of only negligible portions of the Iowa Satisfaction with Anesthesia Scale items that they answered before discharge from the facility. Methods: This prospective cohort included 124 patients scheduled for cataract surgery.
