About this study

This is an observational, prospective follow-up post-marketing study of CE marked medical devices aimed at treating astigmatism in patients with cataracts. The main objective is to evaluate the response of the intrastromal arcuate incisions procedure for the correction of low corneal astigmatism with the Catalys femtosecond laser using the Cassini Ambient equipment with iris registration in cataract surgery.

Read the detailed description

All patients participating in the study will undergo femtosecond laser treatment for the correction of astigmatism through arcuate intrastromal incisions with the Catalys laser (Johnson \& Johnson, USA, CE marked). The calculation of intrastromal arcuate incisions will be carried out using the following nomogram indicated on the laser: 9.0 mm optical zone and symmetrical incisions of 50 degrees for 0.50D, 55 degrees for 0.75D, 60 degrees for 1.00D and 65 degrees for 1.25D of corneal astigmatism. After the incisions, conventional cataract surgery will be performed using the Centurion phacoemulsifier equipment (Alcon, USA, with CE marking) in the ZCB00 monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) implant (Johnson \& Johnson, USA, with CE marking). All patients will be treated according to standard clinical practice.

A preoperative and postoperative evaluation will be carried out one month and four months after the intervention where the following tests will be performed: refraction, corneal topography with the Cassini Ambient equipment (Cassini Technologies, The Netherlands, with CE marking), measurement of visual acuity with and without correction, slit lamp examination and ocular biometry using the IOLMaster 700 non-contact optical biometer (Carl Zeiss, Germany, CE marked).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cataract and Astigmatism, run by OFTALVIST (Oftalmología Vistahermosa S.L) 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 May 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 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?

Response to treatment (time frame: 4 months after the procedure). 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 22 May 2023.
