About this study

Official title: Prospective Evaluation of the Long-term (18 Months) Effectiveness of the Femtosecond Laser-assisted Arcuate Incisions Following Cataract Surgery

This clinical study is an open, controlled, prospective, single center, single-surgeon, post-market-clinical-follow-up study to evaluate the long-term (18 months) effectiveness of the femtolaser-assisted astigmatic keratotomy.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this prospective post-market-clinical-follow-up study is to address the long-term effectiveness of arcuate incisions, in eyes after VICTUS femtosecond laser-assisted astigmatic keratotomy.

This study will be conducted at Gemini eye clinic in Zlin, Czech Republic by Dr. Pavel Stodulka who will examine up to 100 eyes who previously received VICTUS femtolaser-assisted arcuate incisions treatment.

Patients will be recruited according to the study inclusion/exclusion criteria.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative keratometric cylinder

    Postoperative Astigmatism (keratometry) ≤ 1.0 D in 60% of eyes

    Measured: 18 months after the VICTUS femtosecond laser-assisted arcuate incisions.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Postoperative Manifest Cylinder

    Postoperative Manifest Astigmatism (manifest refraction) ≤ 1.0 D in 60% of eyes

    Measured: 19 months after VICTUS femtosecond laser-assisted arcuate incisions treatment.

  2. Postoperative Objective Cylinder

    Postoperative Objective Astigmatism (manifest refraction) ≤ 1.0 D in 60% of eyes

    Measured: 18 months after VICTUS femtosecond laser-assisted arcuate incisions treatment.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative keratometric cylinder (time frame: 18 months after the VICTUS femtosecond laser-assisted arcuate incisions.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
