ACRYSOF® Toric NATURAL T9 Intraocular Lens (IOL)

November 18, 2016 updated by: Alcon Research
The purpose of this study is to describe rates of spatial distortions related to intraocular lens (IOL) misalignment for ACRYSOF® Single-Piece Toric NATURAL IOL Model SN60T9 when implanted bilaterally into the capsular bag following phacoemulsification in adult patients with bilateral cataract and regular corneal astigmatism. Subjects were implanted with the Model SN60T9 in the first operative (study) eye and either Model SN60T9 or Model SN60T8 in the second operative eye.

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

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.

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

21 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

  • Pupil size greater than or equal to 6 mm after dilation;
  • The subject must be able to undergo second eye surgery within 30 days of first eye surgery.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Irregular corneal astigmatism;
  • Keratopathy/Keratectasia - any corneal abnormality, other than regular corneal astigmatism, including but not limited to the following; keratoconus, keratoglobus, keratolysis, keratomalacia, keratomycosis, and corneal plana;
  • Any inflammation or edema (swelling) of the cornea, including but not limited to the following; keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis, and keratouveitis;
  • Previous corneal refractive surgery;
  • Subjects with diagnosed degenerative visual disorders (e.g., macular degeneration or other retinal disorders) that are predicted to cause future acuity losses to a level worse than 0.2 logMAR;
  • Amblyopia;
  • Clinically severe corneal dystrophy (e.g., epithelial, stromal, or endothelial dystrophy);
  • Diabetic retinopathy;
  • Extremely shallow anterior chamber, not due to swollen cataract;
  • Microphthalmos;
  • Previous retinal detachment;
  • Previous corneal transplant;
  • Recurrent severe anterior or posterior segment inflammation of unknown etiology;
  • Rubella or traumatic cataract;
  • Iris neovascularization;
  • Uncontrolled glaucoma;
  • Aniridia;
  • Optic nerve atrophy;
  • Pregnancy;
  • Any subject currently participating in another investigational drug or device study that may confound the results of this investigation.

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
Number of Subjects Reporting Spatial Distortions Related to Intraocular Lens (IOL) Misalignment
Time Frame: Before Surgery and 180 days after second eye implant
Rates of spatial distortions were evaluated by use of the Visual Distortion Questionnaire (VDQ). The VDQ evaluates the rate & frequency of subjects' experiences with potential visual distortions. The fewer the patients that report visual distortions, the better. The VDQ is a binocular assessment, therfore the subject will use both eyes to evaluate visual distortions.
Before Surgery and 180 days after second eye implant
Reduction of Cylinder
Time Frame: 6 months after surgery on second eye
Percentage of subjects with reduction in post-operative refractive cylinder (amount of astigmatism) compared to pre-operative keratometric cylinder in the study eye. The post-operative refractive cylinder should be significantly lower than it was pre-operatively.
6 months after surgery on second eye
Lens Axis Misalignment
Time Frame: Time of surgery
Comparison of where the surgeon intended to place the lens axis versus final placement of the lens during the surgical procedure, measured in degrees. This number should be close to zero as there should be minimal difference between the two numbers. This assessment is only for the study eye.
