Terms in these criteria, in plain language(5)

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.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Postmenopausal

Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Photopic Monocular logMAR Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) at 4 Meters in First Operative Eyes

    Visual acuity (VA) was tested monocularly (each eye separately) under photopic (well-lit) conditions using the correction obtained from the manifest refraction and electronic Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts on a CTS (Clinical Trial Suite, M\&S Technologies) device at a distance of 4 meters (m) from the eye. VA was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A lower or negative value represents better visual acuity. The mean logMAR values of the two groups were compared to demonstrate non-inferiority of FINEVISION HP trifocal IOL to the control IOL in mean photopic monocular logMAR BCDVA (best corrected distance visual acuity) for the first operative eyes.

    Time frame: 150-180 days after surgery on the first eyes

  2. Mean Photopic Monocular logMAR Distance Corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) for the First Operative Eyes.

    VA was tested monocularly under photopic (well-lit) conditions using the manifest refraction adjusted for optical infinity and electronic ETDRS charts at a distance of 40 centimeters (cm) from the eye. Distance corrected visual acuity at near was measured in logMAR, with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A lower value represents better visual acuity. The mean logMAR values of the two groups were compared to demonstrate superiority of FINEVISION HP trifocal IOL to the control in mean photopic monocular logMAR DCNVA for the first operative eyes.

    Time frame: 150-180 days after surgery on the first eyes

  3. Percentage of 1st Operative Eyes With Secondary Surgical Interventions (SSIs) Related to Optical Properties of IOL for up to Month 12 (Visit 5)

    The number of SSI's related to the optical properties of the IOL was calculated from the time of implantation up to Month 12. The percentage of SSIs was calculated as (# of first operative eyes with an SSI related to the optical properties of the IOL) divided by (# of first operative eyes with successful IOL implantation) times 100. The percentages were compared in the two groups to demonstrate noninferiority of FINEVISION HP IOL compared to AcrySof SN60AT IOL.

    Time frame: Up to Month 12 (Day 360-420), post first eye implantation

  4. Mean Monocular Distance Log Contrast Sensitivity Photopic Without Glare at 2.5 m in 1st Operative Eyes at Month 12 (Visit 5).

    Contrast sensitivity (the ability to detect objects by distinguishing them from their background) was measured monocularly under photopic (well-lit) conditions without glare source in log units using the Clinical Trial Suite (M\&S Technologies) for sine-wave gratings 3, 6, 12, and 18 cycles per degree (CPD) at a test distance of 2.5 meters with best-corrected manifest refraction at 4 meters in place with an adjustment of +0.12 D for the 2.5-meter test distance. A more negative numeric log value represents better contrast sensitivity. Hypothesis testing was not planned for this outcome measure.

    Time frame: Month 12 (Day 360-420), post-first eye implantation

  5. Mean Monocular Distance Log Contrast Sensitivity Photopic With Glare at 2.5 m in 1st Operative Eyes at Month 12 (Visit 5).

    Contrast sensitivity (the ability to detect objects by distinguishing them from their background) was measured monocularly under photopic (well-lit) conditions with a glare source in log units using the Clinical Trial Suite (M\&S Technologies) for sine-wave gratings 3, 6, 12, and 18 cycles per degree (CPD) at a test distance of 2.5 meters with best-corrected manifest refraction at 4 meters in place with an adjustment of +0.12 D for the 2.5-meter test distance. A more negative numeric log value represents better contrast sensitivity. Hypothesis testing was not planned for this outcome measure.

    Time frame: Month 12 (Day 360-420), post-first eye implantation

  6. Mean Monocular Distance Log Contrast Sensitivity Mesopic Without Glare at 2.5 m in 1st Operative Eyes at Month 12 (Visit 5).

    Contrast sensitivity (the ability to detect objects by distinguishing them from their background) was measured monocularly under mesopic (dim-lit) conditions without glare source in log units using the Clinical Trial Suite (M\&S Technologies) for sine-wave gratings 1.5, 3, 6, and 12 cycles per degree (CPD) at a test distance of 2.5 meters with best-corrected manifest refraction at 4 meters in place with an adjustment of +0.12 D for the 2.5-meter test distance. A more negative numeric log value represents better contrast sensitivity. Hypothesis testing was not planned for this outcome measure.

    Time frame: Month 12 (Day 360-420), post-first eye implantation

  7. Mean Monocular Distance Log Contrast Sensitivity Mesopic With Glare at 2.5 m in 1st Operative Eyes at Month 12 (Visit 5).

    Contrast sensitivity (the ability to detect objects by distinguishing them from their background) was measured monocularly under mesopic (dim-lit) conditions with a glare source in log units using the Clinical Trial Suite (M\&S Technologies) for sine-wave gratings 1.5, 3, 6, and12 cycles per degree (CPD) at a test distance of 2.5 meters with best-corrected manifest refraction at 4 meters in place with an adjustment of +0.12 D for the 2.5-meter test distance. A more negative numeric log value represents better contrast sensitivity. Hypothesis testing was not planned for this outcome measure.

    Time frame: Month 12 (Day 360-420), post-first eye implantation

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean Photopic Monocular logMAR Distance Corrected Intermediate Visual Acuity (DCIVA) at 66 cm for the First Operative Eyes.

    VA was tested monocularly under photopic(well-lit) conditions using the manifest refraction adjusted for optical infinity and electronic ETDRS charts at a distance of 66 centimeters (cm) from the eye. DCIVA was measured in logMAR, with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A lower value represents better visual acuity. The mean logMAR values of the two groups were compared to demonstrate superiority of FINEVISION HP trifocal IOL to the control in mean photopic monocular logMAR DCIVA for the first operative eyes.

    Time frame: 150-180 days after surgery on the first eye

  2. Number and Percentage of First Operative Eyes With Cumulative and Persistent Adverse Events at Month 12 (Visit 5) in Comparison to the ISO Safety and Performance Endpoint (SPE) Rates as Described in ISO 11979-7

    The number and percentage of the first operative eyes with cumulative and persistent adverse events as noted in ISO 11979-7 were calculated for the two IOL groups and compared with the ISO Safety and Performance Endpoint (SPE) rates from ISO 11979-7 Table E.2. A p-value was calculated for each adverse event for each IOL group to determine the statistical significance of the difference in the percentages.

    Time frame: Month 12 (Day 360-420), post-first eye implantation

  3. Evaluate Visual Disturbances Using the Quality of Vision (QoV) Questionnaire and QoV Supplemental Questions at Month 12 (Visit 5)

    The Quality of Vision (QoV) questionnaire was used to assess subjective visual disturbances reported by subjects receiving IOLs. The QoV asked the subject to rate the frequency, severity, and degree of bothersomeness for 10 items/visual disturbances in their everyday life based on the past week. The rating scales for frequency, severity, and degree of bothersomeness were: * Frequency: 0 (Never), 1 (Occasionally), 2 (Quite Often), 3 (Very Often) * Severity: 0 (Not at all), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe) * Bothersome: 0 (Not at all), 1 (A little), 2 (Quite), 3 (Very) Scores for each subscale (frequency, severity, degree of bothersomeness) ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating a higher degree of visual disturbances, were computed using a Rasch scoring algorithm which utilized data from the original validation of the QoV. Hypothesis testing was not planned for this outcome measure.

The number and percentage of the first operative eyes with cumulative and persistent adverse events as noted in ISO 11979-7 were calculated for the two IOL groups and compared with the ISO Safety and Performance Endpoint (SPE) rates from ISO 11979-7 Table E.2. A p-value was calculated for each adverse event for each IOL group to determine the statistical significance of the difference in the percentages.

SecondaryEvaluate Visual Disturbances Using the Quality of Vision (QoV) Questionnaire and QoV Supplemental Questions at Month 12 (Visit 5)

The Quality of Vision (QoV) questionnaire was used to assess subjective visual disturbances reported by subjects receiving IOLs. The QoV asked the subject to rate the frequency, severity, and degree of bothersomeness for 10 items/visual disturbances in their everyday life based on the past week. The rating scales for frequency, severity, and degree of bothersomeness were: * Frequency: 0 (Never), 1 (Occasionally), 2 (Quite Often), 3 (Very Often) * Severity: 0 (Not at all), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe) * Bothersome: 0 (Not at all), 1 (A little), 2 (Quite), 3 (Very) Scores for each subscale (frequency, severity, degree of bothersomeness) ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating a higher degree of visual disturbances, were computed using a Rasch scoring algorithm which utilized data from the original validation of the QoV. Hypothesis testing was not planned for this outcome measure.

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 Apr 2022 to primary completion in May 2024, 24 months.

Results were first posted in Jan 2025, 8 months after primary completion.

Of 190 industry-sponsored interventional studies with no phase under Cataract, half reached primary completion within 16 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 28. This study's 24 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 493 studies reached it within 17 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 29.

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 Jan 29, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
