About this study

Official title: Customized Toric Intraocular Lens Implantation in Eyes With Cataract and Corneal Astigmatism After Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK): a Prospective Study

the purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of custom made toric intraocular lens implantation in patients with simultaneous post-DALK high corneal astigmatism and cataract.

Read the detailed description

Patients undergoing cataract surgery after DALK for keratoconus were enrolled. Total corneal astigmatism (TCA)was assessed by a rotating Scheimpflug camera combined with Placido disk corneal topography (Sirius; CSO, Firenze, Italy). A customized toric IOL (FIL 611 T, Soleko) was implanted in all eyes. One year postoperatively, refraction was measured, the IOL position was recorded, and vectorial and non-vectorial analysis were performed to evaluate the correction of astigmatism.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Customized toric IOL for post-DALK atigmatism in people with Corneal Astigmatism in Cataract Patients and Previous DALK, run by Fondazione G.B. Bietti, IRCCS.

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 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 12 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Measure postoperative refractive astigmatism (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT03398109, 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 12 Jan 2018.
