Optometric Follow-up After Cataract Surgery
CataractAge-related CataractThis study will investigate the effectiveness of an optometric follow up of cataract surgery versus an ophthalmic surgeon follow up. It will investigate patient satisfaction,safety and cost.
Ultrasonic System for Cataract Characterization and Optimal Phacoemulsification Energy Evaluation...
CataractUltrasound Therapy; ComplicationsThis study aims to assess the performance of an ultrasonic system for automatic classification of cataract type and severity, as well as the estimation of the optimal phacoemulsification energy. Ultrasonic signals from the lens will be acquired with the Experimental Medical Device (ESUS) in participants with cataract, and in healthy subjects (control). The proposed technique may represent an important advance in cataract treatment. The quantitative and automatic classification of cataract type and severity, and the estimation of the optimal phacoemulsification energy is may represent a valuable tool for surgical planning, reducing complications associated to excessive levels of phacoemulsification energy, as well as the times spent on surgeries. This device may be relevant not only for patients, but also for public health systems, reducing waiting lists and associated costs.
Vivity Insight: A Study of Patient Satisfaction and Visual Performance
CataractThis will be a single arm, open-label, prospective study of patient-reported outcomes of patients with bilateral implantation of the Vivity or Vivity Toric implant.
Pseudophakic Anterior Chamber Depth Measurement in Second Eye Refinement Cataract Surgery
CataractTo study the effective lens position concept in second eye refinement (SER) cataract surgery, by relating inter-ocular symmetry of pseudophakic anterior chamber depth (pACD) measured in Pentacam and SER refractive outcomes.
Endothelial Cell Loss After Phacoemulsification Intra and Supracapsular
CataractsCataract is the clouding of the lens of the eye, which initially prevents clear vision and eventually progresses to blindness if left untreated. Cataract remains the leading cause of blindness and an important cause of visual impairment across the globe. Cataract surgery by ultrasonic phacoemulsification is the most common surgery practiced in France (600 000/year) Two sub-categories of phacoemulsification coexist : Endocapsulars techniques represented by Divide-and-Conquer and Phaco-Chop ; and Supracapsular techniques mainly represented by Subluxation (similar to Tilt-and-Tumble) The corneal endothelium plays an important role in maintaining the dehydrated state and the transparency of the cornea. Some degree of endothelial cell loss invariably occurs in all types of cataract surgery but the amount of endothelial cell loss may varies with the type of surgical technique The aim of the study is to evaluate the density of the central corneal endothelial cells before and after cataract surgery comparing two phacoemulsification techniques (Divide-and-Conquer vs Subluxation)
Effects of Preoperative Using of Eye Patches on Prevention of Emergence Agitation After Cataract...
AgitationChild1 moreThis study is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled trial. To investigate if preoperative using of eye patch will decrease emergence agitation, and to provide a better method of decreasing emergence agitation to pediatric ophthalmic anesthesiologists.
Wound Architecture and Functional Outcome After Cataract Surgery With Manual vs.Femtosecond Laser...
CataractThis study is the long term analysis of two types of FSL 3-plane corneal wound profiles, namely CT1 and CT2 obtained after a FSL cataract surgery.
Viscoat Versus Visthesia. A Comparative Study of Post-cataract Endothelial Cell Loss
CataractObjective of this study is the comparative assessment of the beneficial impact of the Viscoat viscoelastic (OVD) and Visthesia OVD on endothelial cells and corneal edema following torsional-ip cataract extraction surgery. Participants will be recruited from the Cataract Service of the University Hospital of Alexandroupolis (UHA) in a consecutive-if-eligible basis. Eligibility criteria include diagnosis of senile cataract with stage 3 nuclear opalescence according to the Lens Opacities Classification System III (LOCS-3) grading scale. By means of a custom computer randomization program all participants will randomly populate two study groups according to the OVD used (ie. viscoat or visthesia).
Functional Vision With ACRYSOF® IQ IOLs Blue Light Filtration
CataractThe purpose of this study is to compare the reaction time (as measured by braking reaction time in seconds during simulated driving) under glare and no-glare conditions in subjects implanted with ACRYSOF® IQ intraocular lenses (IOLs) to subjects implanted with clear IOLs. This study will enroll subjects previously implanted with IOLs in both eyes for at least 3 months.
Dysfunctional Lens Index Serves as a Novel Surgery Decision Maker for Age-related Cataracts
Age-related CataractTo study the correlations among the dysfunctional lens index (DLI), Lens Opacities Classification System III (LOCS III) nuclear opalescence grading score, preoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), the objective scatter index (OSI) and Scheimpflug based average lens density in age-related cataracts. To investigate the potential of the DLI as a novel surgery decision maker via the Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
