About this study

Official title: Correlation of Pupillary Diameter Change With Age and Anterior Chamber Depth After Cataract Surgery

PURPOSE: To assess the correlation between the change in pupil diameter, age and depth of the anterior chamber after 3 months of cataract surgery both in photopic and mesopic conditions. And study the changes of the pupillary diameter at 3 months after surgery in the two light conditions

Read the detailed description

Healthy patients who are going to be operated on for cataracts are expected to take part in the study. If during the clinical study the minimum number of patients established in the protocol is exceeded, new samples will continue to be registered until the end of the established period.

The sample selection mechanism is by consecutive recruitment during the study period (in order of arrival at the medical office). Patients are operated bilaterally in a period not exceeding 15 days and it will get the variables of both eyes. A simple random sampling will be used for the choice of single eye data per patient.

Study groups in NCT04286646
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Pupil diameter before/after cataractThe investigators measure the pupil diameter before and after (3 months) cataract. Mesopic and photopic conditions

What is being measured

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

  1. Pupil diameter

    It took measurements of pupil diameter in mesopic and photopic conditions using pupillometer software of the Topolyzer Vario (Wavelight Laser Technologie AG).

    Measured: Preoperatively and 3-months postoperatively

  2. Anterior Chamber Depht

    Anterior chamber depth was obtained with Pentacam® (Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany).

    Measured: Preoperatively

  3. Age

    It took the patient's age at the time of surgery

    Measured: Preoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pupillary Disorders, run by Clinica Oftalmologica TACIR at 1 site in Spain.

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 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 3 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 Spain. 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?

Pupil diameter (time frame: Preoperatively and 3-months postoperatively). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04286646, 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 3 Mar 2020.
