The eye contains a lens that focuses light. A clouding of the lens is known as a cataract. Cataracts decrease vision. The treatment for cataracts is cataract surgery. Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures. Although rare, complications of cataract surgery are significant given the number of people who have surgery each year and more serious complications may have a significant impact on the vision and quality of patients. Endophthalmitis is an infection in the eye and it is one of the worst complications of cataract surgery. Most of these infections are caused by bacteria from the patient's skin and conjunctiva, which makes cleaning the skin and eye before surgery very important. Before cataract surgery, patients receive an umber of eye drops; many surgical centers have a combination of medications in a thick gel, so that the medications remain in the eye for a long period of time, which may improve their effect. Laboratory studies suggest that the antibacterial effect of cleaning solutions may be inhibited by gels but this has not been proven, and many believe it to be untrue. This study is to compare the amount of bacteria on the eye prior to surgery in patients receiving a gel formulation of the medications before surgery as compared to those receiving the same medication in eye drop (liquid) form.
Refractive outcome after cataract surgery mainly depends on the prediction of the intraocular lens that is implanted in the eye during surgery. Aim of this study is to measure the position of the lens capsule during surgery and to use this measurements to improve post-operative refractive outcomes.
Hypothesis: Holladay 2 formula is still accurate even used without lens thickness data.
The purpose of this study is to compare AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® +2.5 D Multifocal IOL in both eyes (bilateral implantation) to AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® +2.5 D Multifocal IOL in the dominant eye with AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® +3.0 D Multifocal IOL in the fellow eye (contralateral implantation) at Month 3 following the second eye surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and effectiveness of AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® +2.5 D Multifocal IOL Model SN6AD2 [SV25T0] in Japanese cataract patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of toric high cylinder power intraocular lenses in a larger population in clinical practice and assure the continued safety of these approved devices.
The purpose of this study is to compare VIGADEXA (moxifloxacin 0.5%/dexamethasone phosphate 0.075%) ophthalmic gel to VIGADEXA (moxifloxacin 0.5%/dexamethasone phosphate 0.1%) ophthalmic solution in the prevention of postoperative inflammation and infection.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of an investigational multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) to an FDA-approved monofocal IOL.
