Co-Axial Micro-Incision Versus Co-Axial Small Incision Cataract Surgery Using the Stellaris Enhancement System

January 24, 2012 updated by: Bausch & Lomb Incorporated

Co-Axial Micro-incision Cataract Surgery(C-MICS) Versus Standard Co-Axial Small Incision Cataract Surgery Using the Stellaris Enhancement System

The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that the time to reach a stable refraction is significantly shorter in eyes operated with the 1.8 mm coaxial microincision compared to eyes operated with the 2.75 mm standard incision using the Stellaris Vision Enhancement System.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects must be undergoing bilateral primary in-the-bag intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for the correction of aphakia.
  • Subject's ocular media must be clear except for the presence of the cataract in both eyes.

Exclusion Criteria:

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Refractive Stability
Time Frame: 12 weeks
Cumulative portion of eyes achieving refractive stability within 0.5 D of the final value for the remainder of the trial by surgical procedure and visit.
12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Best Corrected Visual Acuity
Time Frame: Visit 1, visit 2, visit 3, visit 4
Best corrected distance visual acuity(BCVA) was assessed using logMAR charts. Change from preoperative visit summarized by visit. A minus change represents an improvement of the visual acuity
Visit 1, visit 2, visit 3, visit 4
Best Corrected Visual Acuity
Time Frame: visit 5, visit 6, visit 7, visit 8
Best corrected distance visual acuity(BCVA) was assessed using logMAR charts. Change from baseline summarized by visit. A minus change represents an improvement of the visual acuity.
visit 5, visit 6, visit 7, visit 8
Uncorrected Visual Acuity
Time Frame: Visit 1, visit 2, visit 3, visit 4
Uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA) was assessed using logMAR charts. Change from baseline summarized by visit.
Visit 1, visit 2, visit 3, visit 4
Uncorrected Visual Acuity
Time Frame: visit 5, visit 6, visit 7, visit 8
Uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA) was assessed using logMAR charts. Change from baseline summarized by visit.
visit 5, visit 6, visit 7, visit 8
Surgically Induced Astigmatism (SIA)
Time Frame: Visits 1-3
Surgically induced astigmatism was presented in dioptres at each visit.
Visits 1-3
Surgically Induced Astigmatism (SIA)
Time Frame: Visits 4-8
Surgically induced astigmatism presented in dioptres at each visit.
