Eligibility criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects must be 22 years of age or older
  • Able to comprehend and provide written
  • Willing and able to comply with schedule for follow-up visits
  • Demonstrate sufficient cognitive awareness to comply with examination procedures
  • Other inclusion criteria specified in the protocol may apply.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with dry eye syndrome (DES) expected to impact postoperative visual acuity
  • Subjects taking medications that may affect ocular function (including but not limited to mydriatic, cycloplegic and miotic agents; tricyclic antidepressants, phenothiazines, benzodiazepines, first generation antihistamines, and anticholinergic agents)
  • Prior intraocular or corneal surgery (including corneal refractive correction i.e., LASIK, PRK, etc.)
  • Any corneal dystrophy that may affect visual acuity (e.g., keratoconus, pellucid corneal degeneration, etc.)
  • Other exclusion criteria specified in the protocol may apply.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

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.

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.

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

Start is estimated for May 2023; primary completion for Nov 2024, 18 months later.

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 planned 18 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 490 studies reached it within 17 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 28.

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 Mar 9, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
