What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Binocular Photopic Uncorrected Intermediate (66 cm) Visual Acuity (UCIVA)

    Visual acuity (VA) was tested binocularly (both eyes) at a distance of 66 cm, without manifest refraction, using an Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart presenting on a self-calibrating monitor in a computerized testing system. Visual acuity was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with a 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on the ETDRS chart.

    Measured: 6 Months (160-210 days post second eye operative visit)

  2. Mean Binocular Photopic Uncorrected Near (40 cm) Visual Acuity (UCNVA)

    Visual acuity (VA) was tested binocularly (both eyes) at a distance of 40 cm, without manifest refraction, using an Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart presenting on a self-calibrating monitor in a computerized testing system. Visual acuity was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with a 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on the ETDRS chart.

    Measured: 6 Months (160-210 days post second eye operative visit)

  3. Mean Binocular Photopic Uncorrected Distance (4 m) Visual Acuity (UCDVA)

    Visual acuity (VA) was tested binocularly (both eyes) at a distance of 4 m, with +0.25 D infinity adjustment lens in front of the eyes, using an Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart presenting on a self-calibrating monitor in a computerized testing system. Visual acuity was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with a 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on the ETDRS chart.

    Measured: 6 Months (160-210 days post second eye operative visit)

  4. Mean Monocular Photopic Distance-Corrected Intermediate (66 cm) Visual Acuity (DCIVA) in IC-8™ IOL Eyes

    Visual acuity (VA) was tested monocularly (each eye) at a distance of 66 cm, with the distance manifest refraction (with infinity adjustment) in place for that eye, using an Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart presenting on a self-calibrating monitor in a computerized testing system. Visual acuity was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with a 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on the ETDRS chart.

    Measured: 6 Months (160-210 days post second eye operative visit)

  5. Mean Monocular Photopic Depth of Focus (DOF) in IC-8™ IOL Eyes

    Depth of focus was performed monocularly in the IC-8™ IOL Group at the far to near range of vision (+2.00 to -5.00 D), using 100% contrast ETDRS charts in a computerized testing system calibrated for a 4 m test distance, with manifest refraction (no infinity adjustment) in place for the eye(s) being tested. The defocus power was progressively introduced in 0.50 D increments from +2.00 D to +0.50 D and from -0.50 D to -5.00 D, then in 0.25 D increments from +0.50 D to -0.50 D, while visual acuity was measured at each successive defocus step. The depth of focus was estimated as the defocus range between zero defocus and the first point on the negative lens induced mean defocus curve that crosses the 0.2 logMAR using a linear interpolation.

    Measured: 3 Months (60-110 days post second eye operative visit)

  6. Mean Monocular Best-corrected Distance (4 m) Visual Acuity (BCDVA)

    Visual acuity (VA) was tested monocularly (each eye) at a distance of 4 m, in photopic conditions, with manifest refraction in place (no infinity adjustment) using an Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart presenting on a self-calibrating monitor in a computerized testing system. Visual acuity was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with a 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on the ETDRS chart.

    Measured: 12 Months (300-420 days post second eye operative visit)

Visual acuity was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with a 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on the ETDRS chart. Monocular BCDVA for the IC-8™ IOL eyes of subjects in the Best-Case population was compared to the safety and performance endpoints (SPE) rate for posterior chamber IOLs.

    Measured: 12 Months (300-420 days post second eye operative visit)

  9. Rates of IC-8™ IOL Eyes With Cumulative Ocular Serious Adverse Events

    The rates of cumulative ocular serious adverse events (SAEs) for IC-8™ IOL eyes were calculated from the time of second eye (IC-8™ IOL eye) implantation through Month 12.

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Tolerance to Preoperative Corneal Astigmatism in IC-8™ IOL Eyes With BCDVA 20/25 at 3 Months

    Uncorrected-distance visual acuity (UCDVA) in IC-8™ IOL eyes achieving best-corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA) of 20/25 or better was compared between eyes with preoperative corneal astigmatism < 1.0 D to eyes with 1.0 D to 1.5 D of preoperative corneal astigmatism.

    Measured: 3 Months (60-110 days post second eye operative visit)

  2. Mean Monocular Photopic Contrast Sensitivity Without Glare

    Contrast sensitivity (the ability to distinguish between an object and it's background) was evaluated in a subgroup of subjects and was tested monocularly (each eye) in photopic (well-lit) conditions, without a glare source, using sine waving gratings in a computerized testing system. The photopic spatial frequencies tested were 3, 6, 12, 18 cycles per degree (cpd). When a subject was unable to see the highest contrast grating, the highest contrast score was assigned. Raw scores (0 to 9) from contrast sensitivity testing were transformed to log units. Better contrast sensitivity results are reflected by a higher numeric value.
