Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 25 to 38 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • age (25-38).
  • Stable refraction was distinctive by 6 subjective refractions within ± 0.50 diopters(D) of spherical equivalent during 6 months after CXL.
  • best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of +0.4 LogMAR (20/40) or better, -clear central cornea.
  • normal anterior chamber depth at least 3 mm to endothelium .
  • intraocular pressure (IOP)<20 mm Hg and preoperative endothelial cell count related to age and the anterior chamber depth with regard to Food and Drug Administration recommendations.
  • Width of Angle greater than 30°, a pupil diameter of less than 6.25 mm.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with central corneal thickness of less than 450 μm.
  • endothelial cell count of less than 2,000 cells/mm2 .
  • anterior chamber depth of <3 mm from endothelium to anterior capsule .
  • Corneal opacification or scars, cataract, retinal detachment, glaucoma, retinopathy, macular degeneration, neuro ophthalmic diseases or ocular inflammation, history of keratitis (any form), peripheral marginal degeneration, previous corneal and/or intraocular surgeries, and autoimmune and/or connective tissue disease. The central corneal thickness limit of 450 μm would account for around 400 μm of remaining stromal thickness after removal of the epithelium, which is considered as the safety thickness for the residual stroma to avoid endothelial cell damage during the CXL procedure.

About this study

Official title: Comparative Analysis of the Visual Performance in Patients With Stable Keratoconus After Implantation of the Toric Implantable Collamer Lens (TICL).

To report on 4-year postoperative safety, efficacy, stability and predictability outcomes(to evaluate the visual, refractive, contrast sensitivity, defocus curve and aberrometric data preoperation, and compare with a similar postoperative outcomes) with the Toric Implantable Contact Lens (TICL) for Stable keratoconus. Investigators will study the four-year follow-up from this standardized, multi-center clinical investigation, support from clinical and optical viewpoints TICL implantation, in stable keratoconus.

Toric Implantable contact LensExperimentalThe Visian implantable collamer lens (Staar Surgical AG, Nidau, Switzerland), is a monoblock single-piece plate haptic lens made of collamer (an extremely hydrophilic and highly biocompatible flexible collagen copolymer with a refractive index of 1.452 that is permeable to oxygen and nutrients
Receives: Device: Toric Implantable collamer Lens

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual acuity (UCVA,BCVA) by Snellen chart

    Measured: Up to 4 years after surgery

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Refractive error by Auto Kerato-Refractometer

    Measured: Until 4 years after surgery

  2. Defocus curve by Phoropter

    Measured: Up to 4 years after surgery

  3. Patient satisfaction to measure the patients' subjective assessment of visual improvement by a validated questionnaire

    Measured: up to 4 years after surgery

  4. Contrast sensitivity by MediWorks C901 Acuity Chart (Shanghai MediWorks Precision Instruments Co, Ltd, Shanghai, China.

    Measured: up to 4 years after surgery

  5. Aberrometry by Ray Tracing

    Measured: Up to 4 years after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Toric Implantable collamer Lens in people with Keratoconus, run by Shahid Beheshti University at 1 site in Iran.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jul 2016. 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 Iran. 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?

Contact Farideh Doroodgar, MD (farinaz_144@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Visual acuity (UCVA,BCVA) by Snellen chart (time frame: Up to 4 years after surgery). 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 NCT02833649, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 15 Jul 2016.
