About this study

The investigational devices are approved intraocular lenses (IOL) intended to be implanted after phacoemulsification in individuals suffering from age-related cataract with the need of cataract surgery. Within the study, three different IOLs will be investigated and separately evaluated. Cataract surgery with IOL implantation will be performed in subjects who have signed an informed consent form. Postoperative examinations will be postoperative refraction, visual acuity, slitlamp examination, and rotation of the IOL within 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month and 4-7 months.

In the Alcon Clareon toric, RayOne EMV toric and PODEYE Toric group, patients receive a toric IOL according to their preoperative astigmatism

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of axial intraocular lens position

    Change in axis position of an intraocular lens Rayner RayOne or Hoya Nanex or Hoya Vivinex Impress or Alcon Clareon toric or Rayner RayOne EMV toric or PODEYE Toric from end of surgery (baseline axis) to 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month and 4-7 months (end of study visit). The change in axis position will be evaluated with respect to the baseline measurement at the end of surgery. Differences in axis position will be described as rotation in degrees (0 to 360°)

    Measured: 7 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Decentration

    Decentration of the intraocular lens Rayner RayOne or Hoya Nanex or Hoya Vivinex Impress or Alcon Clareon toric or Rayner RayOne EMV toric or PODEYE Toric will be measured with the Casia 2 OCT. Decentration will be described as "Decentration in milimeter"

    Measured: 7 months

  2. Tilt

    Tilt of the intraocular lens Rayner RayOne or Hoya Nanex or Hoya Vivinex Impress or Alcon Clareon toric or Rayner RayOne EMV toric or PODEYE Toric will be measured with the Casia 2 OCT. Tilt will be described as "Tilt in degrees at a certain axis"

    Measured: 7 months

  3. Anterior chamber depth

    The anterior chamber depth (Axial position of the IOL) of the intraocular lens Rayner RayOne or Hoya Nanex or Hoya Vivinex Impress or Alcon Clareon or Rayner RayOne EMV toric or PODEYE Toric will be measured with the Casia 2 OCT after 1 month. The anterior chamber depth will be measured in milimeter

    Measured: 1 month

  4. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA)

    BCVA will be measured at 1 week, 1 month and 4 to 7 months. The BCVA will be described as the minimum angle of resolution (logMar)

    Measured: 7 months

  5. UCIVA in the Alcon Clareon toric and Rayner RayOne EMV toric groups

    Uncorrected Intermediate Visual Acuity mono or bilateral

    Measured: 7 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intraocular Lens Implantation in people with Age Related Cataracts and Astigmatism, run by Medical University of Vienna at 1 site in Austria.

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 13 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2025. 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 Austria. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Rupert Menapace, Prof.Dr. (0043-1-40400 ext. - 66300, rupert.menapace@meduniwien.ac.at), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of axial intraocular lens position (time frame: 7 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 NCT03803852, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 14 May 2025.
