Filter by:Controlled, open label, prospective Post Market Clinical Follow-Up, single-center clinical study to investigate visual performance after implantation of a trifocal IOL (PhysIOL Pod L GF) in patients that underwent refractive surgery.
To compare treatment with preservative-free dexamethasone 0.1% (Monofree Dexamethason) and diclofenac 0.1% (Dicloabak) eye drops versus preserved dexamethasone 0.1% (Maxidex) and diclofenac 0.1% (Voltaren Ophtha) eye drops after cataract surgery in terms of postoperative inflammation, iatrogenic dry eye disease and cystoid macular edema.
The study intends to measure the evolution over time of the cognitive capacity of patients undergoing cataract surgery in relation to the opaque lens removal surgery (cataract) in a population considered to be at risk of neurocognitive degeneration. Secondary objectives: • Estimate the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunctions and any episodes of perioperative delirium with the aim of demonstrating the safety of cataract surgery in the elderly patient in terms of cognitive functions and impact on the psychological state. In the context of the study a risk sub-population analysis will be carried out, evaluating the trend over time of the "endothelial cells count" parameter The elderly population remains, due to the aging of the cornea, a population "at risk" for significant alterations from the clinical point of view. During the study the endothelial cells count will be monitored, in order to be able to evaluate the safety of the cataract surgery and to be able to correctly correlate a possible deterioration in the visual acuity of patients with corneal decompensation. To evaluate the progress of the endothelial cells count in the elderly patient during the pre-intervention and post-intervention period. Since the low values of cellular media in endothelial microscopy are an element that increases the risk of complications during cataract surgery, the study wants to assess how waiting times between filter visits and cataract surgery can cause an elderly patient worsening of this parameter even in a few months. The trend of the same parameter will be monitored even after the intervention since in case of decrease, the low endothelial count could cause an alteration of visual acuity and therefore a minor improvement in cognitive performance. The research will be set as a longitudinal observational study where will be compared in each patient the parameters analyzed in the 6 months prior to cataract surgery and in the 3 months following the operation itself. Patients will be enrolled during the first cataract filter visit, will be submitted to simple questions and their clinical data will be collected. Subsequently, before and after three months of surgery repeated cognitive testing and the control normally performed instrumental tests during follow-up. A clinical follow-up will be provided, during normal follow-up visits at 20 days and 6 months after the patient's surgery: the following information will be collected during these visits - BCVA (visual acuity) - endothelial cells microscopy - OCT macula and optic nerve - Catquest 9SF; - Barthel Index; - Six Item Cognitive Test - Confusion Assessment Method (CAM): this exam will be performed within 24 hours of post-surgery and 20 days after surgery. It is important to underline that the cognitive tests proposed to patients consist of simple questions that do not depend on the visual ability of the subject.
The degree at which cataract surgery improves visual function in patients with advanced age-related macular degeneration (Advanced AMD) has been an on-going topic of discussion. Our objective in this study is to determine if patients with Advanced AMD and concurrent cataracts will experience greater improvement in their quality of life from having cataract surgery on one or both eyes. The findings from this project will provide evidence for clinical decision making on whether performing bilateral cataract surgery on Advanced AMD patients is cost-effective and worth the second surgical intervention.
The main objective of the trial is to assess the efficacy of the CT LUCIA 611P intraocular lens (IOL) with regard to the horizontal IOL position stability. The horizontal position collected at 1 month and 4 to 6 months post-operatively will be compared to the horizontal IOL position recorded at baseline (1 week post-operatively) as well as to the position stability of the reference IOL, CT ASPHINA 409MP.
The investigators are going to Investigate the comparative efficacy of the patients who underwent cataract surgery with three different multifocal IOLs.
This study is a single-center, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial with the following objectives: to compare the incidence of post-operative descemet membrane detachment (DMD) in phacoemulsification surgery between modified and conventional 2.2mm microincision.
The objectives of the Post-Market Follow-up (PMCF) clinical investigation are to determine the safety and performance of a hydrophobic trifocal intraocular lens POD L GF in comparison with two comparator lenses: another multifocal intraocular lens (Johnson & Johnson TECNIS Symfony® Extended Range of Vision IOL); and a monofocal intraocular lens (Alcon AcrySof® IQ Monofocal IOL) through one year of post-operative assessments.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of performing 0.50 D cylinder correction on the RxSight Light Adjustable Lens (LAL) in patients who have undergone implantation with the FDA approved, commercially available LAL.
Combined cataract + trabectome surgery is a surgery designed to help lower the intraocular pressure (pressure in the eye) and hopefully reduce the need for topical drops, progression of glaucoma, and/or further glaucoma surgeries. The purpose of this study is to assess whether using pilocarpine, a medication which is FDA approved to induce miosis, (in other words cause the pupil to constrict or become smaller) provides additional benefit to the success of Trabectome and cataract surgery.
