About this study

Official title: Clinical Investigation of Omega Refractive Capsule, Model VI in Combination With a Commercially Available, FDA Approved Monofocal or Toric Intraocular Lens

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational Omega Refractive Capsule (model VI)

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective, interventional, randomized, controlled, paired eye, subject-masked design.

Subjects will be randomly assigned to which eye will receive the Omega Refractive capsule VI with an FDA approved intraocular lens. Fellow eyes will serve as controls and receive an FDA approved IOL (no Omega capsule).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Omega Refractive Capsule with an FDA approved Intraocular Lens and FDA approved Intraocular Lens in people with Cataract, run by Omega Ophthalmics at 1 site in Costa Rica.

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 10 inclusion and 28 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 2023. 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 Costa Rica. 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?

Absence of fusion of peripheral anterior and posterior capsule (time frame: 6 Month Postoperative Visit). 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 2023.
