About this study

Official title: Hyperopic LASIK With Concurrent Prophylactic High-fluence Cross-linking Versus Standard LASIK Outcomes

Analysis corneal and refractive stability of hyperopic laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with and without concurrent prophylactic high-fluence cross-linking (CXL).

Read the detailed description

Interventional prospective consecutive comparative case control series of cases; 50 eyes of 25 patients with mean age 35.7 ± 12.4 (Range 18-61years) with hyperopia or hyperopic astigmatism underwent customized LASIK with concurrent prophylactic high-fluence cross-linking in right eye (group 1) and customized LASIK only in left eye (group 2). Cases with hyperopia +1 diopter to +6 diopters or hyperopic astigmatism up to 4 diopters were included in the study. Patients with previous intraocular or corneal surgery, active corneal disease were excluded from the study.

Main outcome measures were uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), manifest refractive spherical equivalent (MRSE), cycloplegic refractive spherical equivalent (CRSE), keratometric measurements and spherical aberrations at 4 mm and maximum pupil and their evolution along 6 months postoperatively.

What participants receive

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

  • LASIKProcedure or surgery

    LASIK with concurrent prophylactic high fluence crosslinking in right eye ( After the excimer laser ablation, and with the flap folded onto itself and protected with a dry sponge, one drop of Vibex Rapid™ , consisting of 0.10% saline-diluted riboflavin (a very slightly hypotonic solution, mixed with hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, a dextran substitute), was placed on the exposed stromal bed afforded by the open LASIK flap and carefully spread over the bed area with an irrigating cannula for 60 seconds and LASIK only in left eye

What is being measured

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

  1. assessment of changes in refractive spherical equivalent

    assessment of changes in manifest refraction by autorefractometer and then calculate spherical equivalent

    Measured: preoperative and 3 months and 6 months postoperative

Model description
Interventional prospective consecutive comparative case control series of cases; 50 eyes of 25 patients with mean age 35.7 ± 12.4 (Range 18-61years) with hyperopia or hyperopic astigmatism underwent customized LASIK with concurrent prophylactic high-fluence cross-linking in right eye (group 1) and customized LASIK only in left eye (group 2). Cases with hyperopia +1D to +6D or hyperopic astigmatism up to 4D were included in the study. Patients with previous intraocular or corneal surgery, active corneal disease were excluded from the study. Main outcome measures were uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), manifest refractive spherical equivalent (MRSE), cycloplegic refractive spherical equivalent (CRSE), keratometric measurments and spherical aberrations at 4 mm and maximum pupilnand their ecolution along 6 months postoperatively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing LASIK in people with Hyperopia, run by Minia University.

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 1 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 21 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

assessment of changes in refractive spherical equivalent (time frame: preoperative and 3 months and 6 months postoperative). 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 21 Jul 2017.
