Trial summary

Patients implanted with the ReSTOR 2.5 multifocal IOL in the dominant eye and the ReSTOR 3.0 in the non-dominant eye have overall satisfaction and spectacle independence at least comparable to that with bilateral implantation of the 3.0 add lens. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Patient-Reported Satisfaction and Spectacle Independence With the ReSTOR 2.5 Combined With the ReSTOR 3.0 IOL in Cataract Surgery

Patients implanted with the ReSTOR 2.5 multifocal IOL in the dominant eye and the ReSTOR 3.0 in the non-dominant eye have overall satisfaction and spectacle independence at least comparable to that with bilateral implantation of the 3.0 add lens. Glare and haloes and other unwanted visual side effects with this mixed combination of lenses is better than with bilateral 3.0 lenses.

Read the detailed description

Patients desire spectacle independence for a range of distances, including distance, intermediate, and near. The ReSTOR 2.5 multifocal lens has been designed to allow better uncorrected intermediate vision and reduce glare and haloes compared to previous, higher-add models. However, their impact on overall patient satisfaction, glare \& haloes (incidence and impact), and spectacle independence has not been examined with a patient-reported outcome study. Additionally, in clinical practice, many clinicians find that bilateral implantation of ReSTOR 2.5 yields insufficient near vision for about 30% of patients (1). For this reason, many surgeons prefer to implant the ReSTOR 2.5 in one eye (usually the dominant) and the ReSTOR 3.0 in the other eye.

MDbackline is a multi-center patient-reported research engine that has been in use since 2013 for data collection in several patient-reported outcome studies for major industry sponsors. Studies performed with MDbackline have been presented at major meetings and are in press with peer-reviewed journals. The investigators have previously conducted studies of patient satisfaction and spectacle independence with the higher add (3.0) multifocal lens prior to the approval of the ReSTOR 2.5. These data, which include about 85 patients, will be used as historical references. They showed a high degree of satisfaction and spectacle independence but complaints of glare and haloes in as many as 37% of patients ("a fair amount of glare" or more). (2) Since approval of the ReSTOR 2.5, the investigators have clinically observed far fewer complaints of glare/haloes when the lower-add lens is used in at least one eye.

In this study the investigators propose to evaluate patients with the ReSTOR 2.5 lens in one eye and the ReSTOR 3.0 in the other using substantially the same questionnaire in the previous study described above. The investigators plan to compare results of these new data (2.5/3.0 combination) with the previous study data (3.0/3.0).

What participants receive

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

  • SurveyDevice

    Patients will complete a survey describing their satisfaction with vision after cataract surgery that was performed at least 2 months prior to study enrollment.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Historical controlsThis group of historical controls makes up patients who have previously undergone cataract surgery with a 3.0 add ReSTOR lens in each eye. This group has already completed a satisfaction questionnaire identical to what will be posed in the 2.5/3.0 add lens group.
2.5 and 3.0 add lensesThis group will have undergone cataract surgery at least 2 months before conducting a questionnaire. Patients enrolled in this group had cataract surgery with a 2.5 add ReSTOR lens in one eye and a 3.0 add lens in the other.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall satisfaction with surgery

    Overall satisfaction with surgery, defined as the percentage of patients who report "top box" (5 out of 5) satisfaction with implantation of a 2.5D add ReSTOR implant in the dominant eye and a 3.0D add ReSTOR implant in the non-dominant eye.

    Measured: at least 2 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cataract, run by MDbackline, LLC 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2019. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Overall satisfaction with surgery (time frame: at least 2 months 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 NCT03073681, 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 5 Jun 2019.
