Active clinical trials for "Cataract"

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the TECNIS Multifocal 1-Piece Intraocular Lens (IOLs), Models ZKB00 and ZLB00 which will each provide statistically better distance-corrected near visual acuity compared to the monofocal control lens. Complication and adverse event rates associated with each Multifocal IOL will be within the ISO SPE rate for posterior chamber IOLs.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of loteprednol etabonate (LE) ophthalmic gel, 0.38% (BID)

The objective of this study is to assess the visual outcome after the combined binocular implantation of +2.5 D and +3.0 D apodized diffractive multifocal intraocular lenses.

This study is undertaken to determine the effect of intravitreal long acting dexamethasone implant, (Ozurdex®) in improving outcome of cataract surgery in patients with diabetic macular edema. Diabetic Macular Edema and cataract constitute important causes of visual impairment in patients with diabetes. Cataract surgery in patients with diabetic retinopathy is associated with progression of retinopathy. Several modalities such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, corticosteroids, hyperbaric oxygen, laser photocoagulation and vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane peeling have been tried for managing inflammatory cystoid macular edema. Intravitreal Triamcinolone Acetonide (TA), a water insoluble steroid, has been shown to reduce the retinal thickness and improve the visual acuity. However, recurrence of macular edema in patients who receive intravitreal TA is a major concern as the patients need multiple repeat injections. In search for the ideal corticosteroid preparation, a Dexamethasone Posterior Segment Drug Delivery System (Dexamethasone DDS - Ozurdex®, Allergan Inc, Irvine, California) was recently developed. Promising results have been shown in certain patients with persistent diabetic macular edema receiving this intravitreal drug delivery system with improvement in visual acuity The present study introduces a novel concept of using intraoperative Ozurdex ® implant in patients with diabetes mellitus while undergoing cataract surgery to minimize the worsening of diabetic maculopathy.

This study will test the efficacy and safety of IBI-10090 in the treatment of ocular inflammation after ocular surgery.

The objective of this clinical study is to compare the safety and efficacy of Mapracorat Ophthalmic Suspension, 3% to vehicle for the treatment of postoperative inflammation and pain following cataract surgery.

The purpose of this clinical research study is to investigate the efficacy of predosing patients undergoing cataract surgery with the potent corticosteroid difluprednate ophthalmic emulsion 0.05% compared to prednisolone acetate 1% on corneal edema (swelling), and retinal thickness.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of treating visually significant bilateral cataract with the newer technique of Immediate Simultaneous Bilateral Cataract Surgery (ISBCS) versus the conventional technique of Delayed Sequential Bilateral Cataract Surgery (DSBCS) in a select patient population.

This is a randomized multicenter study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ReSure Sealant compared to sutures for preventing incision leakage within the first 7 days of cataract surgery.

The objective of this study is to assess the visual outcome after the combined binocular implantation of +2.0 D and +3.0 D refractive multifocal intraocular lenses.
