简要总结
The purpose of this open, prospective study is to address the effectiveness and precision of the VICTUS™ Femtosecond Laser Platform-assisted astigmatic keratotomy after femtolaser-assisted cataract surgery.
详细描述
Corneal astigmatism after cataract surgery represents a considerable obstacle in the visual rehabilitation of patients. Up-to-date astigmatic keratotomy represents a standardized and effective procedure that allows decreasing of naturally occurring and surgically induced astigmatism. The shape and architecture of the Arcuate Incisions are pre-calculated based on a particular chosen nomogram. The different parameters of the Arcuate Incisions as radius, opening and position angle and cutting depth can be achieved precisely by the laser technology.
The laser-assisted Cataract surgery and the Arcuate Incisions are performed by means of a femtosecond laser (VICTUS™ FEMTOSECOND LASER PLATFORM®, Technolas Perfect Vision GmbH, Munich, Germany) which is in the presented study under investigation and is already CE-approved.
For this open, prospective data collection several selection criteria have been defined in order to obtain a data set of minimal 43 eyes and maximal 50 eyes. Depending on whether they will be treated unilateral or bilateral the number of subjects enrolled within this study sums up to 22-50 patients. The data is gathered in the Castrop-Rauxel Augenklinik and only from one experienced surgeon.

入选标准
- •Clear corneal media
- •Patients must be at least 40 years of age
- •mono- or bilateral Cataract with uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA)

排除标准
- •The maximum K- value may not exceed 60D, the minimal value may not be smaller than 37D
- •Pachymetry does not include examination results at an radius of 4.25 mm
- •Corneal disease or pathology, such as corneal scaring or opacity, that precludes transmission of laser wavelength or that distorts laser light
- •Subjects with a poorly dilating pupil or other defect of the pupil that prevents the iris from adequate retraction peripherally
- •Lens/zonular instability such as, but not restricted to, Marfan's Syndrome, Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome, etc.
- •Manifest Glaucoma
- •Previous intraocular or corneal surgery of any kind, including any type of surgery for either refractive or therapeutic purposes in either eye
- •Known sensitivity to planned concomitant medications
- •Patients regularly taking medicines that could influence the result of the treatment respectively the vision
- •Patients with disorders of the ocular muscle, such as nystagmus or strabismus
- •Patients with keratoconus, keratectasia or other irregular cornea changes

- •Patients who are blind on one eye
- •Subjects who are immune compromised or carrying diagnosis of connective tissue disease, clinically significant atopic disease, insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, autoimmune diseases, ocular herpes zoster or simplex, endocrine diseases, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, collagenosis and other acute or chronic illnesses that will increase the risk to the subject or confound the outcomes of this study.
- •Abnormal examination results from slit lamp, fundus examination or IOL Master, age related changes are acceptable
- •Patients with eye diseases which decreases the visual acuity such as macular degeneration, macular edema, proliferative diabetic Retinopathy
