A Prospective Observational Case Series of a Four-ring-haptic Acrylic One-piece IOL
- Conditions
- Cataract
- Registration Number
- NCT01244373
- Lead Sponsor
- General Hospital Linz
- Brief Summary
To describe biocompatibility, postoperative results and complications after implantation of the Corneal Quatrix Evolutive (Corneal, Croma, Austria) intraocular lens, a hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) with 4-haptic design and 360° sharp optic edge.
- Detailed Description
In this prospective case series the Corneal Quatrix Evolutive IOL was implanted in 14 eyes of nine patients with senile cortico-nuclear cataract. A standardized surgical technique and post-operative regimen were applied. Six months postoperatively best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction and complications (especially) posterior capsule opacification (PCO) were analysed.
