Filter by:In an aging population, cataract and presbyopia become increasingly common. A cataract develops when the natural crystalline lens inside a person's eye, becomes cloudy over time, causing reduction of vision. Presbyopia is an age related condition resulting in loss of reading/near vision and requiring reading glasses. Cataract surgery is the most common elective surgery in the world for patients over 65. It is composed of removal the cataract and insertion of a new intraocular lens (IOL). Currently only monofocal IOLs are available on the NHS (National Health Service, United Kingdom) - meaning they give good distance or near vision. The majority of patients opt for good distance vision with glasses to read. The investigators are trialling insertion of a new Extended Depth of Focus (enhanced aspheric) IOL (EDoF IOL), which treats both cataract and presbyopia. All patients attending St Thomas' hospital for treatment of cataracts will be considered for invitation to the study. Patients who participate in the study will be randomly selected to receive either the new Extended Depth of Focus IOL - the TECNIS Eyhance ICB00 IOL, or a well-established monofocal (non-EDoF) IOL the Alcon Acrysof IQ SN60WF IOL during cataract surgery. Insertion of the Alcon Acrysof IQ SN60WF IOL is known to treat cataract but not presbyopia. Patients will be assessed and have their surgery performed at St Thomas' Hospital London. They will have 7 appointments over 12 months, plus surgery. The investigators hope to demonstrate better distance, intermediate and near vision and increased spectacle independence in the TECNIS Eyhance ICB00 IOL group. EDoF IOLs have the potential to improve cataract surgery outcomes for patients in the NHS.
This is a single visit study to evaluate the visual outcomes and patient satisfaction of patients who were bilaterally implanted with the Tecnis Synergy IOL between June 1 and December 31, 2021 in 2 centers in USA
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.
This is a non-interventional prospective, comparative study of the outcomes for patients following successful, uncomplicated cataract surgery. All patients will have had bilateral implantation of an Eyhance IOL (DIB00/DIU***) or Clareon IOL (CNA0T0) at the time of uncomplicated cataract surgery. These patients will then be assessed post-operatively to determine binocular intermediate vision. Patients will be assessed for corrected binocular distance and intermediate vision.
Successful treatment of residual refraction 6 months after IOL Implantation with Relex-Smile.
The aim of this study is to assess visual and refractive outcomes after laser vision correction (LVC) - ReLex Smile to correct residual myopic refraction after 6 months of pseudophakic (IOL) implantation. Before SMILE YAG-Laser capsulotomy should be performed on all patients, regardless of posterior capsule ossification, in pseudophakic patients with residual refraction. When the YAG Laser is applied after the SMILE, there will be a diopter change.
The residual hypermetropic refraction on pseudophakic(Trifocal IOL) patients is difficult to treat surgically. In addition, there are not many suitable options to offer such patients presenting with this condition. Two current common surgeries to treat residual hyperopic refraction are refractive lens exchange (RLE) and excimer laser ablation (LASIK or PRK). Laser procedures: Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK); Laser assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK); Risks of LASIK include abnormalities of the corneal flap, epithelial ingrowth, corneal ectasia, refractive surprises, irregular astigmatism, decentration, visual aberrations, a loss of BCVA, infectious keratitis, symptoms, and diffuse lamellar keratitis. Refractive lens exchange (RLE); The risks of RLE are similar to those of cataract surgery and include endophthalmitis, a loss of accommodation, vitreous loss with posterior capsular rupture, and retinal detachment. The method used at the EYE Hospital Pristina using fresh lenticule implantation by ReLex-SMILE is safe and effective method, since there is no flap this prevents invasive damage to the anterior surface of the cornea contrary to the LASIK where flap is present posing risk for epithelial ingrowth. Before SMILE,YAG-laser capsulotomy should be performed on all patients, regardless of posterior capsule ossification, in pseudophakic patients with residual refraction. When the YAG-laser is applied after the SMILE,there will be a diopter change.
The objective of this investigator initiated study (IIT-001) is to obtain data on clinical methods which can be used during the examination of patients desiring binocular custom vision with the Light Adjustable Lens (LAL). An analysis of the collected data will be performed to determine whether these clinical assessments can be used by doctors to enhance their patient's clinical outcome.
The aim of this study is to assess visual and refractive outcomes after Toric Trifocal lens implantation and visual outcomes after laser vision correction (LVC) - ReLex Smile to correct residual refraction after 6 months of Toric Trifocal (IOL) implantation.
Targeting of post-cataract refraction depends mainly on the prediction of the post-operative lens position, but also on the post-operative refraction itself. Hence, aim of this study is to evaluate the agreement and variability of subjective refraction performed by two independent examiners, autorefraction, and wavefront aberrometry in pseudophakic patients after uneventful cataract surgery.
