Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Cataract
Astigmatism
Registration Number
NCT01140477
Lead Sponsor
Bausch & Lomb Incorporated
Brief Summary

The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Bausch + Lomb Toric Accommodating Posterior Chamber Silicone Intraocular Lens used to provide near, intermediate, and distance vision and a reduction of the effects of preoperative corneal astigmatism in presbyopic patients undergoing cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) placement.

Sex
All
Target Recruitment
229
Inclusion Criteria
  • Subjects must have a clinically documented diagnosis of age-related cataract
  • Subjects must require a lens power from 16 to 27 diopters
  • Subjects must have predicted post-operative corneal astigmatism between 0.83D and 2.50D, as determined by the Toric Calculator
Exclusion Criteria
  • Subjects with any anterior segment pathology for which extracapsular/ phacoemulsification cataract surgery would be contraindicated.
  • Subjects with diagnoses of degenerative visual disorders.
  • Subjects with conditions associated with increased risk of zonular rupture.
  • Subjects who have had previous corneal surgery in the planned operative eye.
  • Subjects with irregular corneal astigmatism.
  • Subjects with clinically significant retinal pigment or epithelium/macular changes.
  • Subjects with chronic use of systemic steroids or immunosuppressive medications.
  • Subjects either concurrently participating in another clinical trial or have participated in another clinical trial within 60 days prior to enrollment in this study.
  • Subjects with a difference in corneal astigmatism measured with the IOL Master and the topographer greater than 0.5 D using vector analysis.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent Reduction in Absolute Cylinder120 - 180 day postoperative visit

Percent reduction in absolute cylinder expressed as a percentage of the intended reduction in cylinder. Cylinder reduction is the measurement for astigmatism reduction. Astigmatism is a form of refractive error that can affect uncorrected visual acuity (at all distances). Reducing cylinder should improve UCVA, but other elements of refractive error, such as myopia or hyperopia, can also affect UCVA. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) is not affected by refractive error.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Lens Misalignment120 - 180 day postoperative visit

This Outcome Measure was evaluated for Crystalens Toric IOL arm only - Toric IOLs require precise alignment to correct astigmatism; control IOLs do not.

Visual Acuity120 - 180 day postoperative visit

Best-Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) without Glare (logMAR)
