About this study

Official title: A Clinical Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of the LensGen Intraocular Lens

A multi-center, open-label, non-comparative clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of the LensGen IOL (Juvene IOL) for the treatment of aphakia and presbyopia after removal of the natural crystalline lens due to cataract.

Read the detailed description

The Juvene IOL is specifically designed to utilize the mechanics of two optics to change the focal point in the human eye to correct presbyopia without the side effects experienced with other presbyopia correcting lenses. One optic provides the base power of the lens. The other contains a central fluid reservoir that utilizes the natural contraction of the ciliary body to change the focal point of the eye via the neural-uveal response induced by looking at an intermediate or near target.

The optic material is well characterized and has been safely used as an IOL material. Diffractive and refractive multifocal IOLs provide functional distance and near vision, with up to 4 diopters of add, yet they have not overcome the known side effects of haloes, glare, and reduced contrast sensitivity. Newer presbyopia correcting lenses, such as the Juvene IOL, use novel and proprietary changes in lens curvature to bilaterally change the focal point in each eye to any given distance the patient is looking.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Juvene IOL in people with Cataract and Presbyopia, run by LensGen, Inc. at 2 sites in Mexico.

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 12 inclusion and 21 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 9 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 2 sites in Mexico. 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?

Primary Effectiveness Endpoint (time frame: 12 Months). 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 NCT05364658, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
