NCT ID: NCT01602068 Completed - Cataract Clinical Trials

Safety and Efficacy of Iontophoretic Dexamethasone Phosphate Delivery Prior to Implantation of a Posterior Chamber IOL

Start date: May 2012
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ocular iontophoresis with dexamethasone phosphate ophthalmic solution EGP-437 using the EyeGate® II Drug Delivery System (EGDS) compared to placebo in patients undergoing cataract surgery with implantation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens.

NCT ID: NCT01598428 Completed - Cataract Clinical Trials

Anterior Capsule Polishing Effect on Effective Lens Position

Start date: January 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

- The purpose of this study is to evaluate effects of anterior capsule polishing on effective lens position (ELP) and actual axial movement of the intraocular lens (IOL) by measuring anterior chamber depth (ACD) - patients with bilateral age-related cataract undergo bilateral uneventful cataract surgeries with in-the- bag implantation of a single-piece hydrophobic acrylic foldable IOL (SN60WF). The anterior capsule was extensively polished using Whitman Shepherd Double-Ended Capsule Polisher in one eye randomly, and the other not. The ACD was measured 1day, 1 week, 1month, 3 months and 6 months with anterior segment Optical Coherence Tomograph (AS-OCT) postoperatively. The actual axial movement of IOL was defined as the root mean square (RMS) of the change in ELP at each visit.

NCT ID: NCT01591655 Completed - Surgery Clinical Trials

Mapracorat Ophthalmic Suspension, 3% for the Treatment of Ocular Inflammation and Pain Following Cataract Surgery

Start date: July 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this clinical study is to compare the safety and efficacy of mapracorat ophthalmic suspension, 3% with its vehicle for the treatment of postoperative inflammation and pain following cataract surgery. Participants from the United States and Canada will be recruited for this study.

NCT ID: NCT01591161 Completed - Surgery Clinical Trials

Mapracorat Ophthalmic Suspension, 3% for the Treatment of Ocular Inflammation and Pain Following Cataract Surgery

Start date: July 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this clinical study is to compare the safety and efficacy of mapracorat ophthalmic suspension, 3% with its vehicle for the treatment of postoperative inflammation and pain following cataract surgery.

NCT ID: NCT01576952 Completed - Ocular Inflammation Clinical Trials

Comparison Study of ISV-303 to DuraSite Vehicle in Cataract Surgery Subjects

ISV-303
Start date: July 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the ocular safety, tolerability, and efficacy of topical administration of ISV-303 compared with DuraSite Vehicle.

NCT ID: NCT01554761 Recruiting - Cataract Clinical Trials

Effect of Posterior Corneal Toricity on Refractive Outcome of Pseudophakia

Start date: February 2012
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study is to evaluate the necessity of considering posterior corneal toricity on refractive outcome of patients with cataracts and corneal astigmatism after implantation of intraocular lenses. This is determined by comparing total corneal and refractive astigmatism,and by comparing the expected refractive result with actual refractive astigmatism postoperatively,using total corneal and anterior corneal astigmatism to calculate respectively.

NCT ID: NCT01553760 Not yet recruiting - Cataract Clinical Trials

The Use of an Anterior Chamber Maintainer as a Sole Fluid Source in Micro Incision Cataract Surgery as Compared to a Standard Phacoemulsification Procedure

Start date: March 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare the use of an Anterior Chamber Maintainer (ACM) as the sole fluid source in phacoemulsification micro incision cataract surgery (using 1.1mm corneal incision) as opposed to conventional coaxial phacoemulsification (using 2.4mm corneal incision).

NCT ID: NCT01550939 Completed - Pseudoaphakia Clinical Trials

Time Study for Biometry Measurements With the Lenstar and IntraOcularLens (IOL) Master 500

Start date: January 2012
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The objectives of this study are to determine the time needed to complete a full set of measurements (Total Ophthalmic Exam, Subject Data Entry and Acquisition of the Measurement) by each test device, the Lenstar 900 Version i4 and IOL Master 500.

NCT ID: NCT01546402 Completed - Cataract Clinical Trials

Intraoperative Dexamethasone Implant Improves Outcome of Cataract Surgery With Diabetic Macular Edema

Start date: May 2011
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study is undertaken to determine the effect of intravitreal long acting dexamethasone implant, (Ozurdex®) in improving outcome of cataract surgery in patients with diabetic macular edema. Diabetic Macular Edema and cataract constitute important causes of visual impairment in patients with diabetes. Cataract surgery in patients with diabetic retinopathy is associated with progression of retinopathy. Several modalities such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, corticosteroids, hyperbaric oxygen, laser photocoagulation and vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling have been tried for managing inflammatory cystoid macular edema. Intravitreal Triamcinolone Acetonide (TA), a water insoluble steroid, has been shown to reduce the retinal thickness and improve the visual acuity. However, recurrence of macular edema in patients who receive intravitreal TA is a major concern as the patients need multiple repeat injections. In search for the ideal corticosteroid preparation, a Dexamethasone Posterior Segment Drug Delivery System (Dexamethasone DDS - Ozurdex®, Allergan Inc, Irvine, California) was recently developed. Promising results have been shown in certain patients with persistent diabetic macular edema receiving this intravitreal drug delivery system with improvement in visual acuity The present study introduces a novel concept of using intraoperative Ozurdex ® implant in patients with diabetes mellitus while undergoing cataract surgery to minimize the worsening of diabetic maculopathy.

NCT ID: NCT01544777 Completed - Cataract Clinical Trials

Visual Quality Following Aspheric Intraocular Lens (IOL) Implantation - a Comparative Clinical Study

751
Start date: February 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional
