About this study

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.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Subjects Reporting Spatial Distortions Related to Intraocular Lens (IOL) Misalignment

    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.

    Measured: Before Surgery and 180 days after second eye implant

  2. Reduction of Cylinder

    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.

    Measured: 6 months after surgery on second eye

  3. Lens Axis Misalignment

    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.

    Measured: Time of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ACRYSOF® Single-Piece NATURAL Toric IOL Model SN60T9 and Model SN60T8. in people with Bilateral Cataract, run by Alcon Research at 1 site in United States.

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 12 inclusion and 20 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 9 Jan 2017. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Jul 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Subjects Reporting Spatial Distortions Related to Intraocular Lens (IOL) Misalignment (time frame: Before Surgery and 180 days after second eye implant). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 9 Jan 2017.
