About this study

Official title: Intermediate Vision in a Driving Simulator Environment: Comparison of the New J&J EYHANCE IOL With a Conventional Monofocal IOL

To compare (low contrast) visual acuity (VA) and contrast sensitivity (CS) - both at intermediate distances under nighttime driving conditions in a driving simulator between patients with bilateral EYHANCE IOLs OR bilateral conventional monofocal IOLs. Visual function testing in the driving simulator will be assessed without AND with (static) glare.

Additionally: Assessment of individual response times, scanpath characteristics, evaluation of test retest reliability and self-evaluation of (intermediate) vision and visual impairment related to glare.

To compare (low contrast) visual acuity (VA) and contrast sensitivity (CS) - both at intermediate distances under nighttime driving conditions in a driving simulator between patients with bilateral EYHANCE IOLs OR bilateral conventional monofocal IOLs. Visual function testing in the driving simulator will be assessed without AND with (static) glare.

Additionally: Assessment of individual response times, scanpath characteristics, evaluation of test retest reliability and self-evaluation of (intermediate) vision and visual impairment related to glare.

Simulator

Patients are instructed to drive with a constant speed of 40 km/h on a virtual parcours (straight lane). For testing of either (low contrast) visual acuity or contrast sensitivity, 8-position LANDOLT C's are presented at three locations (within the simulator car, AUDI A4, Ingolstadt/FRG):

(i) At the center of the instrument panel (distance 0.xx m) (ii) At the center of the navigation monitor (y.yy m) (iii) At the center of the rear monitor (z.zz m) A high resolution acoustic attention guidance for immediate gaze direction of the patients towards the three above-mentioned visual stimulus locations (i-iii) is mandatory.

Patients responses are recorded and response times can be extracted from the recordings.

Clinical ophthalmological-optical examinations

  • Medical/ophthalmological history
  • (Uncorrected and Best-corrected) visual acuity (RE,LE,BE) with remote and intermediate (66cm) 8 position LANDOLT C's.
  • LANG I stereotest (near distance)
  • Ocular alignment \& ocular motility
  • Efferent \& afferent pupillomotor status
  • Mesopic contrast sensitivity without/with glare (Optovist, VISTEC Inc./Olching/FRG)
  • Intraocular straylight perception (Q-Quant, OCULUS Inc, Wetzlar/FRG)
  • Slit lamp (anterior segment)
  • Ophthalmoscope (central fundus and fixation)
  • Primary objectives: log visual acuity (logVA) at preset low contrast level of 1:2.7 (logCS = 0.2) AND log contrast sensitivity (logCS) at a preset visual acuity level of 0.1 = 2/20)
  • Secondary objectives: test retest reliability (as operationalized by LOA = limits of agreement) AND response time (i.e. time interval between onset of stimulus presentation and final response) AND scanpath characteristics (fixation duration, fixation stability, annotation to regions of interest; saccade amplitude) self-evaluation (questionnaire, using visual analogue scales = VAS)

SHAPIRO WILK test (statistical testing for proving/disproving normal distribution) Descriptive statistics (either MEAN, standard deviation, in case of normally distributed data - else, MEDIAN, inter-quartile range (IQR).

Assessment of test/retest reliability: BLAND ALTMAN plots, limits of agreement (LOA) Between-group comparison: t-test (unpaired samples), in case of normally distributed data - else, WILCOXON signed-rank test

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lenses, Intraocular and Pseudophakia, run by Aalen University 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 5 inclusion and 5 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 31 Mar 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?

logVA (time frame: at least two months after uneventful intraocular lens implantation). The study lists 2 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 31 Mar 2020.
