Trial summary

Refractive surgeries can be divided into two distinct categories: 1) corneal surgeries (superficial and deep procedures) carried on the surface of the eye and 2) lens surgeries (phakic IOL, refractive lens exchange) - an intraocular intervention, performed in the anterior or posterior chamber or on the lens.

About this study

Official title: Chromatic and Monochromatic Optical Aberrations After Corneal Refractive Surgery - Preliminary Study Assessing Their Prevalence, Methods of Reductions of Symptoms and Time-dependent Changes in Patients Symptoms

Refractive surgeries can be divided into two distinct categories: 1) corneal surgeries (superficial and deep procedures) carried on the surface of the eye and 2) lens surgeries (phakic IOL, refractive lens exchange) - an intraocular intervention, performed in the anterior or posterior chamber or on the lens. In the proposed protocol focus is on the corneal refractive surgeries impact on monochromatic higher-order aberrations on the one hand and chromatic aberrations on the other. During the surgery in order to get the patient emmetropic, refractive surgery corrects optical defects by decreasing aberrations of lower orders ) simultaneously increases high-order aberrations (that is perceived by the patient as halo, glare or starburst). Informations about prevalence and causes of higher order aberrations after refractive surgery are numerous but there is no information about chromatic aberrations.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT03893838
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Post refractive surgery without HOAPatients post refractive surgery that do not complain on the high order aberrations such as glare, halo and starburst.
Post refractive surgery with HOAPatients post refractive surgery that do complain on the high order aberrations such as glare, halo and starburst.
Post refractive surgery with rainbow HOAPatients post refractive surgery that do complain on: 1. the high order aberrations such as glare, halo and starburst but with the chromatic aureola 2. difficulties working with LCD projectors, monitors, cell phones and tablets

What is being measured

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

  1. number of high order and chromatic aberrations after refractive surgery

    number of high order and chromatic aberrations after refractive surgery

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Chromoretinoscopy for near (MEM) and distance

    Conducted with a modified by researchers retinoscopy with distinct filters

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Aberrometry reading for corneal HOA

    Conducted with aberrometer and corneal tomography

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Refractive Errors and Aberration, Corneal Wavefront, run by Wrocław University of Science and Technology at 1 site in Poland.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 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 Poland. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

number of high order and chromatic aberrations after refractive surgery (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Mar 2022.
