Trial summary

The most frequent long-term complication of cataract surgery remains to be posterior capsule opacification (PCO). During the past decades many new intraocular lenses (IOL) with optimized lens material and design were introduced. Read more about this study

About this study

The most frequent long-term complication of cataract surgery remains to be posterior capsule opacification (PCO). During the past decades many new intraocular lenses (IOL) with optimized lens material and design were introduced. We propose a study comparing three acrylic single-piece IOLs with different design and hydrophobic material. All IOLs (Hoya NY-60, HOYA Surgical Optics GmbH; EyeCee One, Nidek Co., Aichi, Japan) are commercially available and are used for routine cataract surgery. In this study a comparison of PCO score of all two IOLs, a comparison of optic quality with wavefront analyses, visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, IOL decentration and tilt, slitlamp examination, fibrosis, glistening intensity (subjectively scored), YAG capsulotomy rate, and safety parameters (IOL related adverse reactions) of the investigated IOLs will be performed. Since PCO develops slowly within years, a long-term follow-up of three years will be necessary.

As those IOLs are currently often implanted IOLs, their performance on PCO development and their optical quality is of high interest for the ophthalmologic community.

Being tested
Implantation of an intraocular lenses: iMics 1 NY-60 & NY-60G

What participants receive

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

  • Implantation of an intraocular lenses: iMics 1 NY-60 & NY-60GDevice

What is being measured

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

  1. Posterior capsule opacification

    Posterior capsule opacification in the 2 IOLs will be assessed with semi automated quantification of cataract software

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Implantation of an intraocular lenses: iMics 1 NY-60 & NY-60G in people with Posterior Capsule Opacification, run by Medical University of Vienna.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 5 Feb 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Posterior capsule opacification (time frame: 3 years). 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 5 Feb 2019.
