Trial summary

Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is the most frequently performed refractive surgery procedure for the correction of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. There is a continuous upgrade and development in LVC surgeries correlated with the evolution of new machines and enhancement of the ablation profiles. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Contribution of Spherical Aberration and Coma to The Total Ocular High Order Aberration Before and After Femtosecond Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis Using An Aspheric Ablation Profile

Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is the most frequently performed refractive surgery procedure for the correction of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.

There is a continuous upgrade and development in LVC surgeries correlated with the evolution of new machines and enhancement of the ablation profiles. One of the main undesirable effects of corneal refractive surgeries using conventional ablation profiles is the increase in HOAs which is associated with haloes, glare, ghost images, starburst patterns and monocular diplopia, especially in low lighting conditions and during night driving.

Over the years many ablation profiles have been developed such as wavefront-guided, wavefront optimized, topography guided, Q- Value based and aspheric ablation profiles. These profiles aim to abolish LOAs and to prevent induction or increase of pre-existing HOAs aiming to improve the quality of vision experienced post-operative.

In spite of the vast body of research in this area, there remains a gap in the literature investigating higher-order aberrations' components in-depth. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the contribution of spherical aberration and coma to the total higher order aberration before and after femtosecond assisted laser in situ keratomileusis using an aspheric ablation profile.

This current study is a Descriptive analytical study that was conducted on 34 eyes of 17 patients who underwent corneal refractive surgery.

The results were analyzed to compare the effect of FS-LASIK surgery on corneal coma and SA, and the contribution of each of them on total ocular HOAs preoperative and post-operative.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in percentage of contribution of coma and spherical aberration from total ocular HOA before and after FS-LASIK.

    Measuring unit for coma and spherical aberrations and total ocular HOA is equivalent Diopters.

    The contribution of coma and spherical aberrations to total ocular HOA will be measured as a percentage.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing LASIK refractive surgery in people with FS-LASIK Surgery Effect on Higher Order Aberrations, run by Kasr El Aini Hospital at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 19 Jul 2021. 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 Egypt. 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?

Change in percentage of contribution of coma and spherical aberration from total ocular HOA before and after FS-LASIK. (time frame: 6 months). 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 19 Jul 2021.
