Study summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term clinical acceptability and overall satisfaction with the IC-8 IOL at least 12 months post-IOL implantation.

Read the detailed description

This will be a prospective, multi-center, non-interventional study in up to 80 patients previously implanted with an IC-8 IOL contralaterally or bilaterally under the protocol ACU-P14-029 at up to nine clinical sites within Europe.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the long-term clinical acceptability and overall satisfaction in patients implanted with the IC-8 IOL. The primary study endpoint is binocular target-corrected near visual acuity (TCNVA) of 20/32 or better in 85% or more patients at least 12 months post-implantation. The secondary study endpoint is overall satisfaction with postoperative vision in 85% or more patients reporting either satisfied or very satisfied at least 12 months post-implantation.

Study population

Patients for this study will be recruited from the clinical sites that participated in the prior open-label, multicenter study (protocol ACU-P14-029). Anticipated study sample size of no more than 80 patients should effectively demonstrate the long-term clinical acceptability of the IC-8 IOL implanted in aphakic patients.

Patients will be screened for eligibility, and an informed consent will be obtained from those who meet the screening criteria and are interested in participating in the study.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Patients previously implanted contralaterally or bilaterally with the IC-8 IOL under the protocol ACU-P14-029 and have had the IOL implanted for a duration of at least 12 months and currently have the IC-8 IOL in the eye.
  2. Availability, willingness, ability and sufficient cognitive awareness to comply with examination procedures at the study visit.
  3. Signed .

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients who have developed systemic or ocular pathology, not related to the IOL that affected their best corrected distance visual acuity to be 0.8 decimal or worse as determined by diagnostic testing or investigator's medical judgment. -
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Oct 2017 to primary completion in Nov 2018, 13 months.

Of 67 industry-sponsored observational studies under Cataract, half reached primary completion within 13 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 8 and three quarters within 35. This study's 13 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 234 studies reached it within 16 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 30.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 13, 2022, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
