Active clinical trials for "Cataract"

This study established and validated a universal artificial intelligence (AI) platform for collaborative management of cataracts involving multi-level clinical scenarios and explored an AI-based medical referral pattern to improve collaborative efficiency and resource coverage.The datasets were labeled using a three-step strategy: (1) categorize slit lamp photographs into four separate capture modes; (2) diagnose each photograph as a normal lens, cataract or a postoperative eye; and (3) based on etiology and severity, further classify each diagnosed photograph for a management strategy of referral or follow-up. A deep residual convolutional neural network (CS-ResCNN) was used for the image classification task. Moreover, we integrated the cataract AI agent with a real-world multi-level referral pattern involving self-monitoring at home, primary healthcare, and specialized hospital services.

The purpose of this study is to compare the Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems AG GALILEI G6 Lens Professional to the Oculus Pentacam® AXL for taking images and measurements of the anterior segment of the eye, including the cornea, pupil, anterior chamber and lens, to assist in determining the power of the intraocular lens for implantation.

The investigational device is an approved femtosecond laser (FSL) device with an integrated imaging system to perform certain steps of the cataract procedure. The FSL will perform anterior capsulotomy and lens fragmentation in individuals suffering from age-related cataract with need of cataract surgery. Cataract surgery will be performed in subjects who have signed an informed consent form. Aqueous humor will be collected and screening will be performed for Total Prostaglandin and Prostaglandin E2 via en-bloc Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)-Kit.

Examination of the accuracy of toric predictive power in patients with 1.5 diopters of astigmatism or less.

The investigational device is an approved femtosecond laser (FSL) device with an integrated imaging system to perform certain steps of the cataract procedure including arcuate incisions (AI) correcting astigmatism, also referred to as arcuate keratotomy (AK). The FSL will perform anterior capsulotomy and lens fragmentation in individuals suffering from age-related cataract with need of cataract surgery and additionally perform arcuate keratotomy in individuals with more than 1.0 Diopter (dpt) of astigmatism. Cataract surgery will be performed in subjects who have signed an informed consent form. Postoperative examinations will be implemented in accordance with the approved Investigational Plan on subjects and includes: postoperative refraction, visual acuity, slitlamp examination, and corneal topography

The purpose of the present study is to elucidate the qualitative and quantitative variation of ocular flora after treatment with eyedrops containing 0.6% povidone-iodine in the eye of patients undergoing routine cataract surgery.

To investigate the clinical outcome of Lipiflow treatment prior to cataract surgery in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction and dry eye disease

This prospective study will use a self controlled design for 35 eyes. Patients scheduled to undergo routine cataract surgery in at least one of their eyes will have their pre-surgical measurements performed, IOL calculated and surgery planned. Then they will receive insertion of an intracanalicular dexamethasone insert into the inferior punctum. At 2 weeks (+/- 2 days) post-insertion, patients will return for an identical set of measurements. The IOL will be calculated and the surgery planned based on post-insert data. The insert will be removed if present (manually or via saline irrigation). This self controlled design allows for greater control of potential confounders tied to participants' systemic and ocular health.

A prospective randomized study on patients with late in the bag intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation, after cataract surgery. To obtain normal visual function, these patients needs surgery. In this study the investigators will look for advantages and dis-advantages after two different surgical approaches to late in-the-bag IOL dislocation.

Primary objective of the study is the assessment of the patients' discomfort following cataract extraction surgery by means of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation.
