Filter by:Modern day cataract surgery isn't just a rehabilitative procedure anymore but rather aims at improving a patient's quality of life by reducing the need for spectacles in everyday life to a minimum. One way of achieving this goal is by using different lens technologies, such as a monofocal lens paired a lens with EDOF technology, as EDOF lenses provide an enhanced depth of focus by creating a single elongated focal point. As this "mix-and-match" is well established, the aim of this study is to compare the monofocal lens cohort to the EDOF lens cohort and evaluate visual acuity and patient satisfaction.
This will be a single arm, open-label, prospective study of patient-reported outcomes of patients with bilateral implantation of the Panoptix or Panoptix Toric implant.
Since intermediate vision is becoming increasingly important in our day-to-day tasks, a new IOL was introduced (Acunex Vario) with this objective in mind. This IOL provides excellent vision at far and intermediate distances up to 60 cm and with negligible photopic disturbances compared to conventional multifocal lenses. The Alcon AcrySof IQ Vivity IOL is designed to provide continuous vision from distance to intermediate while preserving contrast sensitivity and with a monofocal visual disturbance profile. So far, there are no published studies comparing these new IOL designs that offer an extended range of vision at far and intermediate distances. Objective: The primary objective of this study is to compare the binocular uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UIVA) at 66 cm under photopic conditions 3 months postoperatively, in a series of patients bilaterally implanted with the Vario IOL versus those bilaterally implanted with the Vivity IOL. Study design: controlled double masked, randomized, prospective clinical trial Study population: patients of 18 years or older with bilateral cataracts that require cataract surgery. Intervention: One group receives bilateral implantation with the Vario IOL and the other group receives bilateral implantation with the Vivity IOL. Main study parameters: The main study parameter is the binocular UIVA at 66 cm under photopic conditions at 3 months postoperatively. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesise that bilateral implantation with the Vario IOL is non-inferior when compared to bilateral implantation with the Vivity IOL, with regards to binocular UIVA at 66 cm under photopic conditions 3 months postoperatively. Cataract extraction in this study will proceed according to regular cataract surgery. As with any type of intraocular surgery, there is a possibility of complications due to anesthesia, drug reactions, and surgical problems. Postoperatively, there will be one extra postoperative visit, compared to standard cataract surgery follow-up. Spectacle-independency postoperatively, without photopic phenomena, is one of the major expected benefits when treating cataract (and presbyopia) with the implantation of the Vario or Vivity IOLs.
The pre-CIN trial is a randomized clinical three-arm trial comparing inflammation and cystoid macular edema for the medication regimens preoperative and postoperative topical NSAIDs to only postoperative topical NSAIDs to postoperative topical NSAIDs and steroids in patients undergoing cataract surgery.
Primary objective of this study is the validation of the Catquest-9SF questionnaire in the Greek population.
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the surgical, refractive, and visual outcomes with implantation of an investigational intraocular lens (IOL).
EYESTAR 900 is a device developed by Haag-Streit which utilises 3D OCT for quantitative measurements of the geometry of the entire eye, including ocular biometry and corneal topography. It is the most recent in a series of successful biometry devices by Haag-Streit (HS Pachymeter, Lenstar LS 900, LS 900 T-cone and LS 900 APS) and also allows for advanced corneal tomography examinations. The EYESTAR 900 is CE marked. These measurement results of this device are used for the planning of the medical treatment of patients. Depending on the application, the benefits of this device may include improved visual acuity (after cataract surgery), reduced risk of complications (after refractive surgery or implant of a phakic intraocular lens), early identification of pathological deformations of the cornea (keratoconus detection). The primary objective of this clinical trial is to assess the clinical performance of the investigational device in dense cataracts. To that end, for each measurand, the in-vivo repeatability will be quantified, as well as limits of agreement and the mean measurement deviation, with respect to the current gold standard device. As a secondary objective of the study, raw measurement data will be collected to allow for the improvement of existing algorithms, development of additional measurands and for retrospective analysis. No diseases are studied.
Modern day cataract surgery isn't just a rehabilitative procedure anymore but rather aims at improving a patient's quality of life by reducing the need for spectacles in everyday life to a minimum. One way of achieving this goal is by using different lens technologies, such as a mono- or bifocal lens paired a lens with EDOF technology, as EDOF lenses provide an enhanced depth of focus by creating a single elongated focal point. As this method is well established, the aim of this study is to compare the monofocal/EDOF cohort to the bifocal/EDOF cohort and evaluate visual acuity and patient satisfaction for both combinations.
Cataract and vitreoretinal diseases often occur simultaneously or cataract is a predictable consequence of vitreoretinal surgery.A combined surgery called phacovitrectomy, has been proved to be comparably safe and effective compared with vitrectomy alone. For fundus surgeons, silicone oil（SO）,gas and balanced saline solution are frequently-used intravitreal tamponade mediums for retinal repair after vitrectomy. There are many factors that may affect how the lens changes position after the operation including the different intravitreal tamponade materials and different IOL types. This study was designed to evaluate the differences of IOL position and capsule bending between Silicone oil filled eyes，gas filled eyes, balanced saline solution filled eyes and normal eyes. The IOL-capsular complex is formed after cataract surgery and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Early postoperative mechanical wrapping of the anterior and posterior capsules plays a significant role in preventing IOL decentration and tilt, as well as formation of the IOL-capsular complex which reduces the incidence of posterior cataract opacity. Although up to 2-3 degree tilt and a 0.2-0.3 mm decentration are common and clinically unnoticed, larger extent of tilt and decentration has a negative impact on the optical performance. IOL decentration ≥ 0.4 mm or/and IOL tilt ≥7degree were considered clinically significant because of poor post-surgery visual quality. Currently, there is no literature guidance to compare the results of phacovitrectomy combined various types of intravitreal tamponade materials in patients using CASIA2. The novel anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) device, CASIA2 can evaluate the IOL capsule bending and the lens position after cataract surgery. Also, CASIA2 can be used to documented the dynamic changes of IOL-capsular complex after surgery.
