Filter by:Screening of haitian children between the ages of 3 and 6 years old for amblyogenic risk factors with the use of the Spot photoscreener. The photoscreener results will be compared to the complete ophthalmologic evaluation. Primarily, this will allow evaluation of the performance of the spot photoscreener in the haitian children population. Secondarily, this study will gather epidemiological information on vision problems in the haitian children population.
This study is a prospective, multicenter, bilateral, non-randomized, open-label, clinical study conducted at up to 20 sites in the USA. Subjects were to be bilaterally implanted with one eye having an extended cylinder (high cylinder) toric IOL (model ZCT450, ZCT525 or ZCT600) and the fellow eye having a high cylinder toric IOL (model ZCT450, ZCT525 or ZCT600) or a lower cylinder toric IOL (ZCT300 or ZCT400). This study evaluates the outcomes for subjects implanted with at least one higher cylinder toric IOL.
The purpose of this study is to observe the axial IOL rotation after surgery with a capsular tension ring (CTR) and a MC6125 AS IOL. At the end of surgery the orientation of the IOL is documented with a short video clip via the operating microscope unit. Follow-up examinations are performed 1 hour, 1 week and 6 months after surgery. Rotational stability of the IOL is assessed using retroillumination images with a method to avoid bias from cyclorotation or head tilt.
Multifocal intraocular lenses (MIOLs) provide enhanced far and near visual acuity, but they can bring about halos and glare, which are caused by design deficiencies of the IOLs. Compared to monofocal intraocular lens, pseudo accommodation in nonphysiological state may increase the difficulty of neural compensation reconstruction in patients with multifocal intraocular lens implantation. Patients enrolled into the study will be followed for 1 year and will have study visits preoperatively, at 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months postoperatively.In this trial, we aimed to specify the time of neural compensation reconstruction in patients and to explore the changes of visual function in senile patients with monofocal or multifocal intraocular lens implantation.
Prospective randomized trial in patients requiring cataract surgery in which IOP, angle anatomy and other demographic and clinical data are compared. Subjects randomized to both MSICS and phakoemulsification
This is an observational, multicenter study to determine the prevalence of Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis (CTX) in patient populations diagnosed with early-onset idiopathic bilateral cataracts. Patients who are potentially eligible for study participation will be identified through a chart review of patients who were seen at each study site prior to that site's initiation, or by entering care at the site while the site is participating in the trial.
Age-related cataracts remain the leading cause of treatable blindness in China. The prevalence of cataract blindness continues to climb due to the expanding elderly subpopulation. Surgery is the only available treatment; however, the cataract surgical rate (CSR) in China remains relatively low relative to affluent countries or certain developing areas. Studies have reported that the primary barrier to cataract surgery is financial difficulty, and this challenge could be efficiently addressed by reducing the surgical fee or providing free cataract surgery. However, the prices, availability and affordability of medicines or medical services to the poor in China require further improvement. Although a host of free cataract screening and surgery programs have been widely implemented in rural areas of China, free cataract surgery programs have rarely been implemented in financially-challenged urban China. Even in Guangzhou, one of the largest metropolises in China, many low-income cataract patients, a neglected cohort, continue to need cataract surgery. A program titled "care for your eyes, lighten your life", jointly sponsored by the People's Government of Guangzhou Municipality, the Bureau of Civil Affairs of Guangzhou Municipality, and the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center (ZOC), has been initiated in Guangzhou to implement a program of free clinics in parks and free cataract surgery targeting the impoverished population living in urban China in 2012. After 3 years' exploration, the management mode of this program has been perfected, and approximately 4000 cataract surgeries had been performed on the low-income elderly. Although there are a large number of poor communities throughout the country, free cataract surgery programs in poor urban China are restricted to several metropolises due to limited medical resources and social overlook. Fully understanding patient satisfaction regarding the free cataract surgery program and understanding the patient characteristics of this special, neglected community may contribute to the improvement and the further expansion of the management mode of free cataract surgery programs.
The objective of this study is to assess the visual outcome after the combined binocular implantation of +2.0 D and +3.0 D refractive multifocal intraocular lenses.
The objective of this study is to assess the visual outcome after the combined binocular implantation of +2.75 D and +3.25 D full-diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses.
The incidence rate of postoperative capsular opacification (PCO) in children after cataract surgery is reported to be as high as 100%, while timely Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy is effective to treat visual axis opacification (VAO) caused by PCO. Therefore, long-term follow-up, timely diagnosis and treatment is important to improve patient's outcome. The major and central part of lens is easy to be observed through a dilated pupil. Especially, opacification in the lens and/or lens capsule is distinctive showing as "white" on the "black" background. The characteristic features of the disease and advances in photographic technique with mobile phone make it possible for patients and/or their guardians to monitor the progress of cataract or PCO with mobile application in a "self-help" manner under non-clinical settings.
