About this study

Official title: Visual Outcomes After Implantation of a New Refractive Toric Multifocal Intraocular Lens

This prospective nonrandomized study comprised patients with cataract, corneal astigmatism, and motivation for spectacle independence. In all cases, a Rayner M-flex® T toric Intraocular Lens will be implanted in the capsular bag. Three months postoperatively, distance, intermediate, and near visual acuities; spherical equivalent; residual refractive astigmatism; defocus curve; and contrast sensitivity will be evaluated. A patient-satisfaction and visual phenomena questionnaire will also be administered.

Read the detailed description

Postoperative evaluation was performed at 3 months. The uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity were assessed using the 100% contrast Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study chart, uncorrected intermediate visual acuity at 70 cm, and uncorrected near visual acuity at 40 cm; a binocular defocus curve was constructed using the ETDRS chart at 4 m and adding to the patient's manifest refraction +2.50 to -5.00 D sphere in 0.50 increments. The cylinder axis of the Intraocular lens (IOL) was measured at the slitlamp using the beam protractor after full mydriasis. The mean of the absolute values of degrees the intraocular lens was off axis was determined.

Contrast sensitivity was measured using the CSV-1000 HGT instrument (VectorVision, Inc.), which presents a translucent chart divided into 4 cycles with spatial frequencies of 3, 6, 12 and 18 cycles per degree. The background illumination of the translucent chart does not depend on room lighting. All measurements were obtained under mesopic (5 cd/m2) and photopic (85 cd/m2) conditions. The examinations were performed unilaterally at a distance of 2.5 m with Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and an undilated pupil. All measurements were performed under the same conditions.

Patient satisfaction and quality of life were assessed by a simple questionnaire. Patients were interviewed 3 months postoperative. Patients were asked about visual disturbances, visual lifestyle activities, spectacle use, and satisfaction with the procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual Performance After Implantation of a Toric Multifocal Refractive Intraocular Lens

    Postoperative evaluation will be performed at 3 months. The uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) will be assessed using the 100% contrast ETDRS chart; a binocular defocus curve will be constructed using the ETDRS chart at 4 m.

    Measured: 3 months postoperative

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Contrast sensitivity

    Contrast sensitivity will be measured using the CSV-1000 HGT instrument (VectorVision, Inc.), which presents a translucent chart divided into 4 cycles with spatial frequencies of 3, 6, 12 and 18 cycles per degree (cpd). The background illumination of the translucent chart does not depend on room lighting. All measurements will be obtained under mesopic (5 cd/m2) and photopic (85 cd/m2) conditions. The examinations will be performed unilaterally at a distance of 2.5 m with BCVA and an undilated pupil. All measurements will be performed under the same conditions.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Patient satisfaction

    Patient satisfaction and quality of life will be assessed by a simple questionnaire. Patients will be interviewed 3 months postoperative. Patients will be asked about visual disturbances, visual lifestyle activities, spectacle use, and satisfaction with the procedure.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Multifocal Intraocular Lens (RAYNER M-FLEX T TORIC IOL) in people with Cataract, run by Hospital Oftalmologico de Brasilia at 1 site in Brazil.

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 6 inclusion and 4 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 2012. 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 Brazil. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Visual Performance After Implantation of a Toric Multifocal Refractive Intraocular Lens (time frame: 3 months postoperative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01505816, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 2012.
