Active clinical trials for "Cataract"

The purpose of this study is to obtain postoperative visual performance data of patients with bilateral implantation of the AT LARA IOL or the AT LARA implanted in the dominant eye and AT LISA tri implanted in the other eye. Dependence on spectacles, the occurrence of photic phenomena and patient and surgeon satisfaction with the patient's visual performance will be documented. Furthermore, the refraction data will be used to optimize the IOL constants for IOL power calculations.

Purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of presbyopic correction lens on Humphrey visual field (HVF) testing in patients with 2 models of multifocal intraocular lens (MIOL) both with and without glaucoma. All participants performed HVF testing with presbyopic collection lenses and without presbyopic collection lenses on the same occasion (5-10 minutes between the test). The mean deviation (MD) and pattern standard deviation (PSD) were compared between with and without presbyopic collection lenses, between glaucoma and non-glaucoma and between 2 models of MIOL.

To assess the safety and effectiveness of treatment with an intracanalicular dexamethasone (0.4mg) insert in the operating room following cataract surgery/intraocular lens implant (IOL) compared to insertion 1-day post-op.

Dry Eye Disease (DED) is a disease of the ocular surface which may be secondary to a variety of causes, including cataract surgery. DED is characterized by loss of tear film stability and dry eye symptoms, and its pathogenesis is related to corneal nerve injury, decreased goblet cells, inflammation of the ocular surface, and dysfunction of the meibomian glands (MGD). MGD is the main cause of evaporative DED and can cause irregularity of the ocular surface, affecting the accuracy of the biometric calculation. In addition, it is a risk factor for DED exacerbation after cataract surgery, that may occur in about 40% of cases. Current therapies for DED include artificial tears, warm compresses, manual squeezing of the glands, eyelid hygiene, omega-3 fatty acids, topical cyclosporine, serum tears, topical azithromycin, oral doxycycline. The above therapies in some cases can provide only transient relief, affecting the outcome of cataract surgery and the quality of life of patients. Therefore, stabilization of the ocular surface before cataract surgery is important to achieve better post-operative comfort and a better refractive result. The introduction of LipiFlow thermal pulsation treatment (LTP) represents a controlled method of squeezing the obstructed Meibomian glands by applying heat to the upper and lower eyelids and simultaneously applying pulsatile pressure to the eyelid skin surfaces. The aim of our study will be to evaluate the effect of preoperative LipiFlow therapy in patients with age-related cataracts and mild to moderate MGD in reducing postoperative DED.

Effectiveness of anterior chamber drainage on the structure of the anterior chamber, the position of the intraocular lens and the shape of the corneal incision in the early stage of cataract surgery with high intraocular pressure

The purpose of this study is to investigate visual outcomes and assess safety at 12 months (330-420 days) post bilateral implantation of the AcrySof® IQ PanOptix™ Presbyopia-Correcting IOL.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of XG-102 (900µg) compared to vehicle in the treatment of subjects with inflammation and pain following cataract surgery.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of selective laser trabeculoplasty after a prior failed phacoemulsification and Eximer Laser Trabeculectomy.

The purpose of this study is determine whether 3% diquafosol and 0.1% sodium hyaluronate are effective and safe in the treatment of patients with dry eye after cataract surgery.

Since femtosecond laser was approved for cataract surgery by FDA in 2010, femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) has demonstrated high precision of capsulotomy, reduced phacoemulsification power and time, and comparable refractive outcome in clinic. It is still unknown whether there are toxic substances produced due to photochemical or high-energy physical effect of femtosecond laser during FLACS.
