ICL and LASIK for Hyperopic Astigmatism

Early Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Astigmatism
Hyperopia
Registration Number
NCT06742541
Lead Sponsor
McGill University
Brief Summary

This study investigates a two-step treatment for people with severe farsightedness combined with astigmatism. The first step involves implanting a specially designed lens inside the eye (a spherical Implantable Collamer Lens, or ICL) to improve vision. Later, a laser procedure (LASIK) is performed to fine-tune the results for even better clarity.

Detailed Description

To assess refractive and visual outcomes of a spherical Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) followed by planned postoperative adjunctive laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in the treatment of high compound hyperopic astigmatism. In this prospective, multi-center, multi-surgeon, single-arm study, eyes with ≥3.50 D hyperopia and ≥2.00 D of astigmatism underwent surgery receiving a spherical Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) followed by a planned adjunctive LASIK postoperatively. Outcomes measures included postoperative uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), manifest refraction, spherical (SEQ) and defocus equivalent (DEQ), efficacy index, safety index, and astigmatism vector analyses.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Post-operative visual acuitiy90 days after lasik surgery

postoperative uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Manifest refraction90 days after lasik surgery

The refraction (glasses prescription required) done manually of the operated eye

Spherical (SEQ) and defocus equivalent (DEQ)90 days after LASIK surgery

SEQ: a single value used to describe a refractive error, combining the spherical and cylindrical components of a prescription DEQ: quantifies the overall refractive blur from spherical and cylindrical components

Efficacy Index and Safety Index90 days after LASIK surgery

Efficacy Index: ratio of postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) to preoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) Safety Index: ratio of postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) to the preoperative CDVA

Astigmatism Vector Analysis90 days after LASIK surgery

The residual astigmatism left after surgery, representing the deviation from the intended correction.
