Filter by:The rationale of this study is to compare repeatability, reproducibility and agreement of three different AS-OCT devices and Pentacam. The investigational devices are approved biometry and keratometry devices to perform biometric/keratometric measurements preoperatively before cataract surgery. The measurements are used to calculate the needed IOL power. Measurements with all four devices will be performed 3 times consecutively by two trained observer. The order of the observer, the order of devices as well as the eye (left/right) is randomized. Examinations will be implemented in accordance with the approved investigational plan on subjects and includes: repeated biometry/keratometry with four different devices
The investigational device is an approved femtosecond laser (FSL) device with an integrated imaging system to perform certain steps of the cataract procedure including arcuate incisions (AI) correcting astigmatism, also referred to as arcuate keratotomy (AK). The FSL will perform anterior capsulotomy and lens fragmentation in individuals suffering from age-related cataract with need of cataract surgery and additionally perform arcuate keratotomy in individuals with more than 1.0 Diopter (dpt) of astigmatism. Cataract surgery will be performed in subjects who have signed an informed consent form. Postoperative examinations will be implemented in accordance with the approved Investigational Plan on subjects and includes: postoperative refraction, visual acuity, slitlamp examination, and corneal topography
This is to compare preoperative and postoperative binocular functional vision in patients with unilateral intraocular len（IOL） in one eye and mild cataract in the fellow eye.
Compare postoperative Subjective and objective visual quality and economic efficiency of different Intraocular Lens(IOLs) implantation designed for the correction of presbyopia.
This is to evaluate the satisfaction of patient and postoperative functional vision of unilateral or bilateral Implantation of intraocular lens（IOLs） in cataract patients.
To compare the performance of an interactive chatbot versus senior ophthalmologists for enhancing informed decisions made by cataract patients. The chatbot was built based on large language models, and could generate medical expert-level responses.
The present study is designed as an exploratory study, seeking to investigate the correlation of patient complaints to subjective or objective measurement methods. Better understanding of causative factors of negative dysphotopsia will improve detection and maybe prediction of this optical phenomenon.
To evaluate the safety and ocular efficacy of Dextenza in combination with an intracameral antibiotic and NSAID in controlling post-operative ocular pain and inflammation compared to standard of care topical therapy in patients undergoing bilateral cataract surgery.
Cataract surgery involves replacing milky lens with a plastic intraocular lens. This plastic lens can be either monofocal (fixates for distance or near without glasses), extended depth of focus (EDOF)(fixates for intermediate and distance vision only without glasses) or multifocal lenses (fixates for distance, intermediate and near vision without glasses). However, EDOF and multifocal lenses are known to produce glare and halos. Tecnis Eyhance (Johnson & Johnson, USA) is a monofocal IOL which give added intermediate vision without employing EDOF or multifocal technology and hence induces no glare and halos. Whereas monofocal IOLs such as RayOne do not give intermediate vision. The objective is to assess visual and optical performance of Tecnis Eyhance versus Rayner RayOne in a prospective, randomized, comparative bilateral study. The proposed study will be the first study comparing the new technology monofocal Eyhance with conventional RayOne Rayner lens to assess the added benefits of Eyhance technology at multiple visits until 3 months after the surgery. Patients attending the clinics with cataracts will be invited to participate in this randomised study. They will be randomised to receive either Eyhance or RayOne in both eyes through surgeries performed not more than 2 weeks apart. The patients will be followed up at 1 and 3 months in the research clinic to assess the uniocular and binocular vision, spectacle prescription, a simple non-invasive scan to look at any distortions in the optics of the eye (wavefront aberrometry) and questionnaire for assessing subjective outcomes, glare and halos.
Rationale: The number of highly myopic patients is increasing. Especially in East and Southeast Asia, up to 90% of adolescents are currently myopic. Long-term treatment of high myopia can be obtained by three types of surgery: laser refractive surgery, phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation, and refractive lens exchange Implantation with a pIOL is the preferred treatment for high myopes, resulting in increasing patient numbers implanted due to the increasing numbers of patients with high myopia. Long-term results show that implantation of a pIOL induces an accelerated decrease in corneal endothelial cells (EC). Although some risk factors for increase EC loss have been identified, the underlying mechanism is currently unknown. It is hypothesized that the aqueous flow in the anterior segment of the eye (i.e. anterior chamber) is disturbed, causing an altered nutritional flow in the anterior chamber. Another hypothesis is that the pIOL causes chronic subclinical inflammation in the anterior chamber resulting in increased EC loss. Currently there is insufficient proof to confirm or reject either hypothesis. If one of these hypotheses can be confirmed, it is likely to induces significant changes in clinical practice. Objective: The primary objective of the study is to explore the role of inflammation in the anterior chamber on endothelial cell loss in patients implanted with iris-fixated pIOLs. The secondary objective is to identify whether there is a correlation between biomarkers in aqueous humour and biomarkers in tears, both related to the accelerated progression of EC loss. Study design: Two strategies are incorporated in the design of this study. The first part will retrospectively evaluate EC loss in patients with iris-fixated (IF) phakic intraocular lenses (pIOLs). The second part is prospective and will compare EC measurements, cytokines in aqueous humour and in tears from patients scheduled for IF-pIOLs explantation and compare them to patients with routine cataract surgery. Study population: Patients over 18 years of age, undergoing regular cataract surgery, and patients undergoing pIOL explantation in combination with cataract surgery. A total number of 126 patients is needed, equally divided over two groups.
