Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Presbyopia
Cataracts
Interventions
Device: Control monofocal intraocular lens
Device: SBL-3 multifocal intraocular lens
Registration Number

Lead Sponsor
Lenstec Incorporated
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of the SBL-3 intraocular lens.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety (adverse events) and performance (visual acuity, spectacle independence) of the SBL-3 intraocular lens.

Inclusion Criteria
  1. ≥ 22 years of age, of any race and either gender
  2. Operable, age related cataract grade in both eyes
  3. Patients who require an intraocular lens (IOL) power in the range of 15 D - 30 D only
  4. Able to comprehend and sign a statement of informed consent
  5. Calculated lens power within the available supply range
  6. Planned cataract removal by phacoemulsification
  7. Potential postoperative visual acuity of 0.2 Logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR) or better in both eyes
  8. In good general and ocular health
  9. Patients with preoperative astigmatism ≤1.0 D Note: Corneal incisions made to reduce astigmatism will not be allowed during the course of the study.
  10. Clear intraocular media other than cataract in study eyes
  11. Preoperative Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) worse than 0.2 logMAR
  12. The subject must be able to undergo second eye surgery between 7 days and 30 days of the first eye surgery
  13. Able to competently complete testing
  14. Willing and able to attend study visits
Exclusion Criteria
  1. Previous intraocular surgery
  2. Preoperative photopic pupil size of < 2.75 mm
  3. Previous corneal refractive surgery
  4. Any inflammation or edema (swelling) of the cornea
  5. Subjects with diagnosed degenerative visual disorders (e.g. macular degeneration or other retinal disorders ) that are predicted to cause future acuity losses to a level worse than 0.2 logMAR
  6. Subjects who may reasonably be expected to require a secondary surgical intervention at any time during the study (other than neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (nd:YAG) capsulotomy)
  7. Amblyopia
  8. Clinically significant ptosis
  9. Clinically severe corneal dystrophy (eg., epithelial, stromal, or endothelial dystrophy), keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis, keratouveitis, keratopathy, or kerectasia
  10. Diabetic Retinopathy
  11. Extremely shallow anterior chamber, not due to swollen cataract
  12. Microphthalmia
  13. Previous retinal detachment
  14. Previous corneal transplant
  15. Severe dry eye
  16. Recurrent severe anterior or posterior segment inflammation of unknown etiology
  17. Systemic medications that may confound the outcome or increase the risk to the subject in the opinion of the Investigator [tamsulosin hydrochloride (Flomax) or other medications with similar side effects (floppy iris syndrome)]
  18. Rubella or traumatic cataract
  19. Iris neovascularization
  20. Glaucoma (medically controlled or uncontrolled)
  21. Aniridia
  22. Chronic severe uveitis
  23. Optic nerve atrophy
  24. Corneal decompensation
  25. Greater than 1.0 D of astigmatism
  26. History of corneal disease (e.g., herpes simplex, herpes zoster keratitis, etc.)
  27. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome
  28. Iris atrophy
  29. Pupil abnormalities (e.g., corectopia)
  30. Aniseikonia
  31. An acute or chronic disease or illness that may confound the results of this investigation (e.g., immunocompromised, connective tissue disease, clinically significant atopic disease, diabetes, and any other such disease or illness)
  32. Pregnant, lactating, or planning to become pregnant during the course of the trial Note: Subjects who become pregnant during the study will not be discontinued; however, data may be excluded from the effectiveness analyses because pregnancy can alter refraction and visual acuity results.
  33. Participation in another clinical trial within 30 days of study start
