Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the visual performance of a trifocal intraocular lens at distance, near and intermediate viewing, by way of visual acuity measurement, contrast sensitivity. Patient satisfaction and quality of vision will also be assessed by way of a questionnaire. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Visual Performance Adn Quality of Vision Evaluation After Implantation of a Trifocal Intraocular Lens

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the visual performance of a trifocal intraocular lens at distance, near and intermediate viewing, by way of visual acuity measurement, contrast sensitivity.

Patient satisfaction and quality of vision will also be assessed by way of a questionnaire.

Read the detailed description

Monocular and Binocular Unaided (UCVA) and Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) will be measured at 6m in LogMAR units under photopic conditions (85cd/m2).

Subjective Refraction will be performed to establish any residual refractive error will for distance, intermediate and near.

Defocus Profiles (visual acuity over imposed defocus) are measured for each patient. The patient observes the 6m LogMAR chart through best distance correction, then defocusing is achieved by the addition of pairs of lenses from +2.00D to -4.00D in 0.50D steps.. The LogMAR acuity will be recorded and the data plotted.

Contrast Sensitivity will be evaluated monocularly under photopic (85cd/m2) conditions and mesopic (4cd/m2) using the Pelli-Robson Contrast Sensitivity Chart.

Near and intermediate performance will be evaluated using the Radner Reading Charts to assess acuity (LogRAD units) and reading speed in photopic conditions 85cd/m2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cataract, run by BMI Southend Hospital at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. 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 30 May 2012.
