About this study

Official title: Evaluating the Need for Pseudophakic Intraoperative Abberrometry in Toric IOL Implantation

To determine clinically significant difference in results obtained from cataract surgery using IA. One eye will receive aphakic measurements only and the fellow eye will receive aphakic and then pseudophakic measurements when implanting a toric IOL.

Read the detailed description

To determine if there is a clinically significant difference in the results obtained for the toric IOL implantation when using IA to measure the aphakic eye only and when using IA to measure the aphakic eye and then the pseudophakic eye, with toric IOL implantation.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Pseudophakic MeasurementDiagnostic test

    standard aphakic measurements will be taken and then pseudophakic measurements will be taken after toric iol implantation. The data produced will aid the surgeon in proper placement of toric iol orientation

Study groups in NCT03819842
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Aphakic Measure onlyNo interventionEye measured in aphakic state only
Pseudophakic measureActive comparatorEye measured in aphakic state then again in pseudophakic state with toric IOL using the ORA System. Pseudophakic measurement obtained will provide data about placement of toric iol and the surgeon will use that data to rotate the iol if necessary.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Pseudophakic Measurement

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinically significant difference in results obtained for tori iol implantation when using IA

    Difference in magnitude of residual refractive astigmatism between groups Percentage of eyes with 0.50D or less of postoperative residual refractive astigmatism at 1 month post-op in each sub-group

    • Percentage of eyes within 0.50D of intended spherical equivalent
    • Sub-group analysis:
    • Vector analysis of the effects of any toric IOL realignment suggested by pseudophakic IA (i.e. was it likely to improve or worsen residual refractive astigmatism and/or UCVA)

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pseudophakic Measurement in people with Cataract and Nuclear Sclerosis, run by Alterman, Modi, & Wolter Ophthalmic Physicians & Surgeons at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 11 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 20 Jan 2022. 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 United States. 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?

Clinically significant difference in results obtained for tori iol implantation when using IA (time frame: 30 days). 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 20 Jan 2022.
