About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of the ReVision Optics, Inc., Raindrop Near Vision Inlay for the Improvement of Near and Intermediate Vision in Pseudophakic Subjects

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Raindrop Near Vision Inlay implanted in bilateral pseudophakes with presbyopia for improvement of near and intermediate vision. The ReVision Optics corneal inlay is a 2.0-mm, 30-micron inlay made of a hydrogel material, implanted under a lasik flap. Subjects must require reading add from +1.50 D to +2.50 D. Subjects must have a preoperative manifest refraction spherical equivalent of -0.50 to +1.00 D with no more than 0.75 D of refractive cylinder. The Raindrop Near Vision Inlay will be implanted in the non-dominant eye.

Read the detailed description

Presbyopia is a natural outcome of pseudophakic subjects with monofocal or toric intraocular lenses. Treatment of pseudophakic presbyopia generally consists of reading glasses, contact lenses, or monovision LASIK, which allows the patient to see near objects. All these options suffer limitations from the patient perspective. For example, reading glasses can easily be lost or not conveniently available. Multifocal contact lenses suffer from visual symptoms and instability due to potential rotation and movement of the contact lenses on the surface of the cornea. And, successful monovision is generally limited to patients with a history of successful use of contact lenses for monovision, and even in these eyes, monovision is associated with a substantial decrease in stereo acuity and contrast sensitivity.

ReVision Optics has developed the Raindrop Near Vision Inlay for the correction of near and intermediate vision. The inlay is the same refractive index as the human cornea. The inlay is placed in the non-dominant eye, centered over the pupil after a corneal flap (LASIK) has been made. The Raindrop Near Vision Inlay is expected to provide low induction of visual symptoms and improvement of near and intermediate vision in emmetropic subjects with presbyopia. This technology may also demonstrate potential clinical utility in bilateral pseudophakic subjects.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Raindrop Near Vision InlayDevice

    A single-arm study to evaluate the effectiveness of a 2 mm corneal inlay (Raindrop Near Vision Inlay) for the treatment of presbyopia (age-related near vision loss). The anterior curvature of the cornea is re-shaped after implanting the Raindrop Near Vision Inlay in the non-dominant eye under a femtosecond laser flap to improve near and intermediate vision.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Implanted Eyes With Improvement in Uncorrected Near Vision

    75% of implanted eyes should achieve uncorrected near visual acuity (40cm/16in) of 20/40 or better

    Measured: 12 months postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Preservation of Best Corrected Visual Acuity

    Fewer than 5% of eyes should lose two lines or more of best corrected distance and near visual acuity and less than 1% of eyes with preoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/20 should have best corrected distance and near visual acuity worse than 20/40

    Measured: at 6 months postoperatively and all subsequent time points up to 24 months

  2. Percentage of Implanted Eyes With a Postoperative Manifest Refraction Astigmatism That Increased From Baseline by Greater Than 2.00 D

    Fewer than 5% of eyes should have postoperative manifest refractive astigmatism that increases from baseline by greater than 2.00 D

    Measured: At 6 months postoperatively and all subsequent time points up to 24 months

  3. Occurrence of Adverse Events

    Any specific adverse event should occur in less than or equal to 5% of eyes.

    Measured: During the length of the study, up to 24 months

  4. Uncorrected Intermediate Visual Acuity

    75% of eyes should achieve uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (80 cm/32 in) of 20/40 or better

    Measured: at 12 months postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Raindrop Near Vision Inlay in people with Presbyopia, run by ReVision Optics, Inc. at 6 sites 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 16 inclusion and 17 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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 1 Mar 2018). 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?

Percentage of Implanted Eyes With Improvement in Uncorrected Near Vision (time frame: 12 months postoperatively). 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 1 Mar 2018.
