December 7, 2011 updated by: Bausch & Lomb Incorporated

Clinical Evaluation of a New Aspheric Intraocular Lens. A Prospective, Multi-Center, Comparative Study.

This study evaluates the visual performance and occurrence of posterior capsular opacification after implantation of a new aspherical intraocular lens compared with a control spherical lens of otherwise identical design.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.
  • Phase 4

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

50 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients must have a clinically documented diagnosis of bilateral cataract (either cortical, nuclear, subcapsular or a combination) liable to benefit from standard cataract surgery.
  • Patients must be undergoing primary cataract surgery with IOL in-the-bag implantation, requiring a IOL power from 10 to 30 diopters.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with corneal damage.
  • Patients with any anterior segment pathology for which extracapsular phacoemulsification cataract surgery would be contraindicated.
  • Patients with any ocular pathology, other than the cataract, having repercussions on visual function:

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Low Contrast Best Corrected Visual Acuity Following Cataract Surgery
Time Frame: 3 months
Low contrast best corrected visual acuity (ability to distinguish objects on a similarly colored or shaded background) 3 months following cataract surgery.
3 months
Low Contrast Uncorrected Visual Acuity Following Cataract Surgery
Time Frame: 3 months
Low contrast uncorrected visual acuity 3 months post cataract surgery
3 months
Photopic Contrast Sensitivity
Time Frame: 3 months
The mean photopic (day light) contrast sensitivity for each spatial frequency (cycle per degree-CPD) (1.5, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0 and 18 cpd)
3 months
Mesoptic Contrast Sensitivity
Time Frame: 3 Months
The mean mesoptic (low light) contrast sensitivity for each spatial frequency (cycle per degree-CPD) (1.5, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0 and 18 cpd)
3 Months
Posterior Capsule Opacification Score
Time Frame: 24 months
Posterior Capsule Opacification Score (PCO), Density of opacification measured from 0-4 (1=minimal and 4=severe) and area of opacification measured from 0-1 (0=no opacification and 1=posterior capsule opacification required a treatment). Results (EPCO) were computer calculated by multiplying density by area of opacification.
24 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
