Visual Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction With Bilateral PanOptix Verses Bilateral Synergy

February 12, 2024 updated by: Berkeley Eye Center

Background:

  • The Tecnis Synergy intraocular lens (IOL) has a claim to allow patients to experience continuous high-contrast vision from far through near even in low-light conditions.
  • A J&J-sponsored post marketing study done outside of the US claim superiority of range of vision for the Tecnis Synergy IOL over the PanOptix IOL.

Hypothesis:

  • Patients with bilateral Panoptix IOLs have non-inferior distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity compared to patients with bilateral Synergy IOLs in both photopic and mesopic conditions with less glare, haloes, and/or starbursts.

Unmet Medical Need:

  • There is a need to look at patient visual outcomes and the visual disturbance profile comparing trifocal technology with combined EDOF/Bifocal technology in the United States.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

  • This is a non-interventional single center, two-arm comparative study of the outcomes for patients following successful, uncomplicated cataract surgery.
  • There will be 155 subjects enrolled in each arm (310 subjects total).
  • Consecutive screening will be used for enrollment beginning from the first bilateral IOL implanted.
  • All testing will be at a single site with subjects coming from 4 surgeons (all use similar surgical technique) at that site.
  • Each surgeon will contribute a minimum of ten subjects per arm.
  • Subjects will be assessed post-operatively during a minimum of five months after their second-eye surgery.
  • Binocular defocus curves will be performed from +1.00 to -4.00 in 0.50 diopter steps and with +0.25 and -0.25 added.
  • Self-reporting of visual complaints will be assessed.
  • IOLSAT (IOL Satisfaction) and QUVID (Quality of Vision After Surgery) questionnaire will be administered at the study visit.
  • Halo and Glare simulator VS Halo & Glare (visu-med.com) will be administered at the study visit.
  • All visual acuity testing will be measured in LogMar and all study technicians and evaluators will be masked.
  • PanOptix subjects will have been implanted with the toric and non-toric models.
  • Synergy subjects will have been implanted with the toric and non-toric models.
  • Demographic data will be collected to match the groups as closely as possible.
