Trial summary

Cataract is a leading cause of blindness in the world. Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed ocular procedures. We aim to compare the newer generation biometry formula; the Kane formula with the commonly used SRK-T formula for intraocular power calculation in uneventful phacoemulsification surgery to… Read more about this study

About this study

Cataract is a leading cause of blindness in the world. Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed ocular procedures. We aim to compare the newer generation biometry formula; the Kane formula with the commonly used SRK-T formula for intraocular power calculation in uneventful phacoemulsification surgery to assess the post-operative refractive outcomes at one month post-surgery.

Read the detailed description

Purpose: To compare post-operative refractive outcome with Sanders Retzlaff Kraff theoretical (SRK T) and Kane formulae for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in cataract patients Study Design: Prospective, interventional study Place and Duration of Study: Department of Ophthalmology, Fauji Foundation Hospital, Rawalpindi Material and Methods: A total of a 70 eyes, 35 in each group will be included in our study. The patients will be randomly divided into two groups. In cases of bilateral cataract, one eye will be included in each group for better control. IOL power calculation in Group A will be done with the SRK-T formula and in group 2 with the Kane Formula. Autokeratometry and A-scan ultrasound will be done for biometry. Inclusion criteria will be uncomplicated cataract in both genders. Exclusion criteria will be ocular trauma, uveitis, previous intraocular surgery, or any retinopathy. All patients will undergo phacoemulsification with foldable lens implantation by two experienced surgeons. Post-operative refractive outcome will be evaluated at one month after surgery. The two groups will be compared.

Results: The results will be calculated by SPSS. Conclusion: A conclusion will be drawn on the basis of our results.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual acuity (Snellen/logMAR) and refractive error (automated refraction in diopters)

    The visual acuity and refractive error of the patients will be measured 1 month post-operatively to compare between the two groups

    Measured: 1 month post-operatively

  2. Spherical equivalent in diopters

    The spherical equivalent of the patients will be measured 1 month post-operatively to compare between the two groups

    Measured: 1 hour to 1 year

  3. Post-operative refractive outcome in diopters

    Post-operative refractive outcome will be compared with intended refractive outcome

    Measured: 1 hour to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Biometry with Kane formula and Biometry with SRK-T formula in people with Cataract; Surgery; Phacoemulsification; Biometry; Intraocular Lens Power, run by Foundation University Islamabad at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 8 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 2 Nov 2022. 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 Pakistan. 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?

Visual acuity (Snellen/logMAR) and refractive error (automated refraction in diopters) (time frame: 1 month post-operatively). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Nov 2022.
