About this study

Official title: Optical Biometry Versus Ultrasonic Biometry in Intraocular Lens Calculation in High Myopic Cataractous Patients: A Comparative Study

the purpose of the study is to compare the accuracy of optical and ultrasonic biometry in intraocular lens (IOL) calculation in high myopic cataractous patients

Read the detailed description
  • Prospective interventional (QUASI experimental) comparative study
  • This study will be conducted on high myopic cataractous patients scheduled for phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in department of ophthalmology, Sohag university
  • patients will be divided into 2 groups one will be subjected to intraocular lens (IOL) calculation by optical biometry the second one will be subjected to intraocular lens (IOL) calculation by ultrasonic biometry
  • postoperative auto refraction after I month
Being tested
optical biometry, ultrasonic biometry

What participants receive

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

  • optical biometryDevice

    optical biometry is a fast, noncontact method it uses the method of partial coherence interferometry (PCI) to measure the axial length (AXL), based on reflection of the interference signal of the retinal pigment epithelium.

  • ultrasonic biometryDevice

    ultrasonic biometry is contact method depends on ultrasonic transducer producing thin sound beam travelling through different media of the eye when it faces interface of substance dissimilar from that it is travelling through part is reflecting and the other travel through the different substance

What is being measured

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

  1. desired post operative refraction

    detection of postoperative refraction by the use of autorefractor (one of the objective methods of assessment of refraction) after use of IOL power calculated by different investigations (optical vs ultrasonic)

    Measured: postoperative refraction 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing optical biometry and ultrasonic biometry in people with Calculation of Intraocular Lens in High Myopic Cataractous Patients, run by Sohag University.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Contact Esraa A Okasha, Resident (01028909988, esraa011037@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

desired post operative refraction (time frame: postoperative refraction 1 month). 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 NCT04952181, 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 7 Jul 2021.
