Trial summary

Cyclorotation of eyes may be affected by motion and orientation of the head and body. An automated alignment method with the technique of iris recognition was used to assess the amount and orientation of position-induced cyclorotation between preoperative wavefront measurement and laser refractive surgery.

About this study

Cyclorotation of eyes may be affected by motion and orientation of the head and body. An automated alignment method with the technique of iris recognition was used to assess the amount and orientation of position-induced cyclorotation between preoperative wavefront measurement and laser refractive surgery.

Read the detailed description

Ninety-three consecutive patients undergoing bilateral wavefront-guided laser refractive surgery in the Department of Ophthalmology of the National Taiwan University Hospital between September 2004 and December 2007 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Before laser refractive surgery, all patients were seated in front of the Zyoptix 100 system platform (Bausch \& Lomb, salt lake city, UT, USA) and received Zywave aberrometer measurement on both eyes. When patients were in the supine position for refractive surgery, an infrared camera mounted on the laser system (Technolas 217z100 excimer laser system, Bausch \& Lomb)obtained iris images on undilated pupils before laser ablation. Overall cyclorotation was detected by a comparison between iris images of undilated pupils in the supine position and dilated pupils in the seated position before laser treatment. The degree and direction of position-induced cyclorotation were assessed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Eye Cyclorotation Degree and Pupil Shift, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jul 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jul 2009.
