Who may be able to join

  • Patient informed of the consequences and constraints of the protocol and who has given his/her written informed consent
  • Patients of any gender, aged 18 years or older
  • Assured follow-up examinations

Show all 23Show fewer
  • Cataract of any grade
  • Ocular disorders, that could potentially cause future acuity loss to a level of 0.20 logMAR (best-corrected) or worse in either eye
  • Any anterior segment pathology that could significantly affect outcomes (e.g. chronic uveitis, iritis, aniridia, rubeosis iridis, clinically significant anterior membrane dystrophies, poor pupil dilation, etc.)
  • Abnormal corneal findings in either eye (e.g. keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, or irregular astigmatism, clinically significant corneal membrane dystrophies)
  • Any condition in the study eye that could affect IOL stability (e.g. zonular dialysis, evident zonular weakness or dehiscence, etc.)
  • History of any clinically significant retinal pathology or ocular diagnosis (e.g. diabetic retinopathy, ischemic diseases, macular degeneration, retinal detachment, optic neuropathy optic nerv atrophy, amblyopia, strabismus, microphthalmos, aniridia, epiretinal membrane etc.) in the study eyes that could alter or limit final postoperative visual prognosis.
  • Patients, who are unable to fixate for a longer time, e.g. strabismus, nystagmus
  • Patient expected to require retinal laser treatment before 6 month follow-up visit
  • Patient require refractive laser treatment / refractive laser touch-up before 6 month follow up visit
  • Current Systemic or ocular pharmacotherapy that effects patients vision
  • Floppy iris syndrome
  • Monophthalmic patient
  • Previous corneal surgery
  • Previous use of cytotoxic drugs or total body irradiation
  • Dementia
  • Uncontrolled glaucoma or Intraocular pressure (IOP) higher than 24 millimeter of mercury (mmHg) under ocular hypertension treatment
  • Any other pathology or condition presenting, according to the investigator opinion, a risk for the patient

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing trifocal IOL in people with Presbyopia, run by Carl Zeiss Meditec AG at 1 site in Germany.

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 8 inclusion and 23 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 16 Jul 2020. 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 Germany. 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?

Corrected distance visual acuity (time frame: 4 to 6 months postop). 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 NCT03790592, 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 16 Jul 2020.
