Filter by:Phase 2b trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of EGP-437, versus placebo using the EyeGate® II Drug Delivery System (EGDS) in patients having undergone cataract surgery with implantation of a monofocal posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL).
prospective, comparative (3 arms), randomized, multicentric clinical trial
The objective of this study is to compare visual acuity and adverse event outcomes from the Clareon intraocular lens (IOL) to historical safety and performance endpoint (SPE) rates.
A) The main purposes of this study are (i) to develop a related virtual reality (VR) environment in order to judge the nighttime driving ability under mesopic and under glare conditions (ophthalmologically healthy subjects and patients with incipient to intermediate cataract, i.e. opacities of the human lens, will participate in this study), (ii) to validate the above-mentioned VR environment with respect to a related on-road driving scenario under mesopic and glare conditions, (iii) to validate clinical photopic and mesopic contrast vision tests and glare tests with respect to the prediction of nighttime driving ability, (iv) to assess the test retest reliability of clinical photopic and mesopic contrast vision tests B) Background: An intact mesopic vision and a glare sensitivity within a normal range are essential pre-requisites for safe driving at nighttime (DOG & BVA, 2011). Anderson & Holiday (1995) have shown that (simulated) opacities of the refractive media (with only minor effects on daytime visual acuity) induce a pronounced impairment of contrast sensitivity under nighttime conditions. Especially under glare conditions by the headlights of traffic on the opposite lane or by stationary street illumination, an impairment of the mesopic vision may cause traffic hazards. The prevalence of impairments of the central visual acuity, the mesopic vision and the glare sensitivity is significantly higher for subjects being involved in nighttime traffic accidents (Lachenmayr, 1998). Furthermore, these impairments occur more frequently in aged drivers and are, among others, related to an increase of age-related media opacities (Aulhorn & Harms, 1970, Babizhayev, 2003). Due to the demographic change, the relevance of nighttime driving ability is increasing in the next years since more and more aged employees will participate at the motorized traffic at night. The German Fahrerlaubnisverordnung (FEV i.e. driving license regulation) specifies pass/fail criteria with regard to mesopic vision and glare sensitivity. The luminance level during nighttime driving is usually between 0.01 and 1 cd/m^2, and therefore can be attributed to the level of mesopic vision. However, over the last years, the attempt was made to introduce photopic contrast sensitivity test to diagnose nighttime driving ability (i.e. testing of contrast vision under daytime conditions without time consuming adaptation procedures). Current research aims at investigating the relationship between contrast tests under various luminance conditions (Wilhelm et al, 2013). It is questionable, whether photopic tests are at all reliable predictors with regard to nighttime driving (Gramberg-Danielsen et al., 1984, Hertenstein et al., Graefe´s Archive of Ophthalmology, 2016).
The aim of the study was to identify whether preoperative corneal astigmatism can influence corneal biomechanics and the assessment of intraocular pressure (IOP) following micro-incision phacoemulsification.
In this study the investigators will investigate the stability of lens position and the visual outcome after implantation of the new FEMTIS-IOL using FLACS capsulotomy compared to conventional placement of the IOL in the capsular bag. So far, there are no published studies using the FEMTIS-IOL. Therefore, the investigators will perform this randomized control trial.
Clinical safety and efficacy of CT ASPHINA 409 IOLs after implantation
A prospective study included 20 patients with super high myopia who underwent bilateral uneventful cataract. 360°anterior capsule polishing was performed with double-ended capsule polisher randomly in one eye, and the opposite unpolished was used as the control. The refractive state and size of anterior opening were measured at postoperative 1 day as the baseline. Then they followed up at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after surgery to record refractive state, higher-order aberrations, size of anterior opening, tilt and decentration of IOL (intraocular lenses)and PAD(postoperative aqueous depth). The paired t test was used to compare the differences between the two groups, and the same test the postoperative follow-up comparing with the baseline.
Since the introduction of intraocular lenses (IOL) in the treatment of cataract, the postoperative accommodative loss of the human eye has been a trending topic. Numerous studies show a high rate of spectacle-independency after bilateral implantation of multifocal IOLs (MIOL). However, glare, halos, and reduced visual acuity under different light conditions are common complaints after MIOL implantation. Due to its unique design, the TECNIS® Symfony Extended Range of Vision ZXR00 IOL (Abbott Medical Optics, Santa Ana, USA, hereinafter referred to as Symfony IOL) is theoretically providing a continuous range of high-quality vision for far, intermediate, and near distances with the same low incidence of halos and glare associated with monofocal IOLs under different light conditions. The goal of this study is to compare the AT LISA tri 839MP IOL (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany, hereinafter referred to as AT LISA IOL) versus the Symfony IOL in terms of postoperative achieved visual acuity at different distances, patient satisfaction (e.g. spectacle-independency, QoL), and postoperative complication profile (e.g. halo's and glare) under different light conditions. So far, there are no published studies comparing both IOLs. Therefore, we will perform this randomized control trial.
This study is a 6-month, prospective, multicenter, bilateral, randomized clinical investigation of the TECNIS Model ZHR00 and Model ZQR00 IOLs versus the TECNIS Symfony control IOL. The study was conducted at 12 sites in the U.S.A and treated approximately 240 subjects, equally split between the two test groups and the control group.
