Clinical Trial Summary

The Hanita Lenses Intensity SL IOL is intended for implantation in the capsular bag in the posterior chamber in order to replace the crystalline lens of the eye to attain visual correction of aphakia in adult patients in whom a cataractous lens has been removed, who desire improved uncorrected vision, useful near, intermediate and far visual functions, and reduced spectacle dependence.

Description:

Different multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) designs have been used for more than 25 years1. Unlike conventional mono focal intraocular lenses (IOLs), which bend light to a single focus point on the retina, MIOLs are designed to help patients to see at varying distances using different points of focus2. MIOLs used in clinical practice were either refractive initially, or later diffractive in their optical design. Refractive MIOLs incorporate a lens optic with different optical powers in different parts of the lens, while diffractive MIOLs use diffractive steps on the lens to distribute light rays into two or more principal foci. Irrespective of the design type, however, all MIOLs involve some form of optical compromise and a process of neuroadaptation for the patient3.

Intensity SL intraocular lenses (IOLs) represent the latest in premium lens technology. Intensity SL lenses provide clear vision at all distances - from near to far - thus offering the best chance of true spectacle independence.

Despite the promising results obtained with the latest generation of MIOLs, many surgeons remain reluctant to implant these lenses. Visual symptoms such as glare and haloes, reduced contrast sensitivity and night vision problems are all known complications of multifocal implants and have served to hamper wider acceptance of these IOLs4.

Hanita Lenses new Intensity SL IOL has been designed to have very high efficiency of light leading to a high MTF, wide focal ranges of far, intermediate and near vision and minimal loss of light energy. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate visual acuity and contrast sensitivity patients receiving the new Intensity SL IOL.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Any of the following condition will render a subject ineligible for inclusion in the analysis:

• Previous ocular/corneal surgery that may affect refraction accuracy or visual acuity.

• Capsule or zonular abnormalities that may affect postoperative centration or tilt of the lens (e.g. pseudoexfoliation syndrome, chronic Uveitis, Marfan's syndrome)

• History or evidence of any ocular disease that may affect visual acuity (i.e. uncontrolled glaucoma, ocular injury, corneal pathologies, retinal pathologies in general and macular pathologies in particular, diabetic retinopathy, uveitis, aniridia or iris atrophy, vitreous pathologies (patients with vitreous separation or floaters can be included).

• Rubella cataract.

• Amblyopia

• Significantly dry eye

• Any other ocular condition that may predispose a subject to future complications or contraindicate implantation of the Intensity SL lens.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Toxicity after IOL implantation	Occurrence of adverse events associated with treating patients diagnosed with binocular cataract with Intensity SL IOL implantation.	3 months
Primary	Binocular Visual Acuity	Binocular visual acuity for far, intermediate and near distance are measured using an ETDRS chart or PV numbers for distance and PV Numbers Near Vision Card (Precision Vision) for near (40cm) and intermediate distances (80cm).; Visual acuity is measured in photopic conditions.	3 months
Secondary	Defocus Curve	Defocus Curve is measured using ETDRS chart or PV numbers. A loss of = 3 lines (= 15 letters) on an ETDRS chart is considered moderate visual loss. A loss of = 6 lines (= 30 letters) is considered severe.; Patient's pupil diameter will be evaluated using a phoropter to create defocus in 0.5D increments, starting from 1D to -4D relative to emmetropia so that the patient will be corrected for far vision.	3 months
Secondary	Contrast Sensitivity	Contrast Sensitivity is measured using a sine wave gratings chart (FACT) at mesopic and photopic conditions.; Luminance for photopic conditions will be 85cd/m² and 5cd/m² for mesopic conditions. The working interval for photopic conditions is 75-95cd/m² and for mesopic conditions is 5-15cd/m².; Luminance for photopic and mesopic conditions will be monitored using Illuminance meter and documented.	3 months
Secondary	Patients Satisfaction	Patient Satisfaction is measured using the modified VF-14 questionnaire for quality of life, in addition to satisfaction questionnaire.; VF-14 stands for Visual Function questionnaire version 14. Function: High score = better Visual Phenomenon: High score = better Satisfaction: Very happy / Happy / Less Happy / Unhappy	3 months
