About this study

Official title: BMVDI Study: Binocular and Monocular Distance-Corrected Visual Performance and Defocus Characteristics of Clareon Truplus IOL

This study aims to generate data that characterizes visual outcomes, including the binocular distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) at 66cm or defocus behavior, of the Clareon TruPlus modified monofocal intraocular lens (IOL).

Clareon TruPlus IOL is designed to provide an extended range of vision compared to the parent monofocal IOL. Clareon TruPlus IOL delivers excellent intermediate vision without compromising distance vision including the quality of vision with low incidence of visual disturbances in normal cataract patients.

Binocular distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity at 66cm will be assessed at a pre-specified postoperative interval 12 weeks after second eye surgery. This study hypothesizes that Clareon TruPlus IOL delivers good binocular DCIVA at 66cm 12 weeks after second eye surgery.

What participants receive

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

  • Clareon TruPlus IOLDevice

    A prospective, single-site, observational study evaluating binocular and monocular distance-corrected and uncorrected visual performance following bilateral implantation of the TruPlus intraocular lens (IOL). Both eyes will be targeted for emmetropia using Argos biometry with IOL power calculated by the Barrett Universal formula. Second-eye surgery will occur within 2 weeks of the first eye. Final evaluation will take place 12 weeks after second eye surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Binocular distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) and Logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR) at 66cm at 12 weeks after second eye surgery

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks after second eye surgery

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Monocular and Binocular Best Distance Corrected Visual Acuity (BDCVA)

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks after second eye surgery

  2. Binocular Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity (UDVA) at 4m, Uncorrected Intermediate Visual Acuity (UCIVA) at 66cm

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks after second eye surgery

  3. Monocular DCIVA at 66cm

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks after second eye surgery

  4. Monocular and Binocular distance corrected Defocus curve (at 3m) from +1.00D to -2.50D

    Measured: Baseline and 12 weeks after second eye surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cataract and Cataract Surgery, run by Colvard Kandavel Eye Center at 1 site in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 10 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 May 2026. 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 United States. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Binocular distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity (DCIVA) and Logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR) at 66cm at 12 weeks after second eye surgery (time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks after second eye surgery). 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 NCT07589894, which also lists 8 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 26 May 2026.
