About this study

To observe the retinal microvascular alteration during 3 months follow-up after Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) operation in moderate and high myopia patients using quantitative optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) analysis.

Read the detailed description

The study object is moderate and high myopia patients, underwent ICL implantation. OCTA was used to image the superficial and deep retinal vascular plexuses before ICL implantation surgery and at 3 months follow-up. OCTA images were corrected for magnification, skeletonized, separated the large vessels and partitioned. Retinal microvascular density was measured by using fractal dimension analysis. The aim of this study was to uncover potential retinal vascular network alterations induced by ICL implantation surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • Optical Coherence Tomography AngiographyDevice

    AngioVue (Optovue, Fremont, CA, USA) was used to capture the OCTA images before ICL surgery and at 3 months follow-up.

What is being measured

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

  1. Retinal microvessels density

    Retinal microvessels density was measured with fractal dimension analysis by using Matalb (The Mathworks, Inc., Natick, MA, USA)

    Measured: 3 months postoperatively

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Best corrected visual acuity

    BCVA was evaluated by decimal Snellen and converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) for statistical analysis.

    Measured: 3 months postoperatively

  2. Mean refractive spherical equivalent

    MRSE = Spherical power + 0.5 * Cylindrical power

    Measured: 3 months postoperatively

  3. Intraocular pressure

    The IOP was measured using a non-contact tonometer (CT-80; Topcon, Tokyo, Japan).

    Measured: 3 months postoperatively

  4. Vault

    The central vault of the ICL (distance from posterior surface of ICL to the crystalline lens) was measured using Optical Coherence Tomography (Visante; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany)

    Measured: 3 months postoperatively

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adolescent and Adult, run by Peking University Third Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 23 Jun 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 China. 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?

Retinal microvessels density (time frame: 3 months postoperatively). 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 NCT04443231, which also lists 3 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 23 Jun 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
