About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Fellow Eye Comparison of Fellow Eyes Undergoing LASIK With the Intralase IFS150 Versus the Visumax

Comparing LASIK outcomes using two femtosecond lasers

Read the detailed description

Patients will have a comprehensive eye examination once they express an interest in the study. This includes a slit lamp examination of the front of the eye and a dilated fundoscopic examination of the back of the eye. If there is any pathology noted that would exclude the patient from the study, then the investigator will inform the patient and make an appropriate referral. Patients deemed appropriate for the study after a comprehensive examination including computerized videokeratography can be enrolled. Patients will undergo bilateral simultaneous eye surgery. Which eye is treated with the Intralase IFS 150 and which eye is treated with VisuMax will be randomized so there is a 50% chance for either eye to receive one treatment. Patients will be seen on the day of surgery, post op day one, one month, three months, six months and one year. Patients will receive topical antibiotics in each eye for one week following the procedure. Patients will receive pred forte 1% ophthalmic drops for one week after treatment. Patients will also receive vigamox ophthalmic drops for four days after treatment. All of this is within the usual and customary standard of care for the treatment of patients undergoing LASIK surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. ETDRS Uncorrected Visual Acuity

    Number of eyes with an uncorrected visual acuity of 20/20 at 12 months measured using ETDRS testing charts

    Measured: At post-operative month 12

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Anterior Segment Ocular Coherence Tomography Measurement of Flap Thickness

    Anterior segment ocular coherence tomography

    Measured: At postoperative month one

  2. Cochet Bonnet Asthesiometry Measurement of Corneal Sensation

    Cochet Bonnet Asthesiometry is measured on a scale of 1-6. Scores of 5 and above are considered normal.

    Measured: At postoperative month twelve

  3. Best Spectacle Corrected Visual Acuity

    Number of eyes losing 2 or more lines of corrected distance visual acuity measured by ETDRS testing charts

    Measured: Postoperative month 12

  4. Aberrometry

    Aberrometry images will be obtained on the iDesign aberrometer

    Measured: One three, six and twelve months

  5. Questionnaire Measuring Patient Preference for Laser Device

    Participants were asked if they preferred having LASIK surgery with either the Visumax laser, the Intralase iFS laser or had no preference between the two lasers.

    Measured: Intraoperative (Approximately 1 minute after completion of surgery)

  6. Patient Reported Outcomes With LASIK

    PROWL study questionnaire

    Measured: One month, three months, six months and twelve months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intralase IFS150 and Visumax in people with Myopia and Astigmatism, run by Edward E. Manche at 1 site 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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Dec 2021. 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 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 14 Dec 2021). 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?

ETDRS Uncorrected Visual Acuity (time frame: At post-operative month 12). 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 14 Dec 2021.
