Study summary

The purpose of this Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study is to describe the long-term safety and performance of the AcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL toric and non-toric models in subjects bilaterally implanted with these IOLs for 3 to 5 years. This study will be conducted in Spain.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be recruited from a population that has already undergone lens implantation. Retrospective data will be collected from the pre-operative and surgical visits and any safety outcomes reported prior to enrollment. Prospective data will be collected at Visit 1, which will occur Year 3-5 postoperative.

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

  • Subject or legally authorized representative must be able to understand and sign an Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) approved form.
  • Subject must have had bilateral implantation of AcrySof PanOptix and/or AcrySof PanOptix Toric IOL models for 3 to 5 years prior to enrollment. A subject may have a toric lens in one eye and a non-toric in the fellow eye.
  • Subject must have a documented medical history and required pre-operative baseline information available for retrospective data collection.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject currently participating in another drug or device study.
  • Subject has had corneal refractive surgery after AcrySof PanOptix or AcrySof PanOptix Toric IOL implantation.
  • Subject exposed to a study IOL for a minimum of 3 years prior to Visit 1 that have subsequently undergone an IOL exchange and are no longer implanted with a study IOL at the time of enrollment.
  • Subject is pregnant or nursing at the time of enrollment.
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.

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.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    AcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL Toric

    Subjects categorized to this group were implanted with AcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL (Toric or Non-Toric) in both eyes 3-5 years prior to enrollment, with at least one of the eyes implanted with AcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL Toric

  • Experimental
    AcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL Non-Toric

    Device: AcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL Non-Toric

Interventions

  • DeviceAcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL Toric

    Trifocal toric IOL implanted in the capsular bag in the eye for the visual correction of aphakia and pre-existing corneal astigmatism in adult patients with and without presbyopia who desire near, intermediate and distance vision with increased spectacle independence.

    Also known as: Models TFNT20, TFNT30, TFNT40, TFNT50, TFNT60

  • DeviceAcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL Non-Toric

    Trifocal IOL implanted in the capsular bag in the eye for the visual correction of aphakia in adult patients with less than 1.00 diopter of preoperative corneal astigmatism with and without presbyopia who desire near, intermediate and distance vision with increased spectacle independence.

    Also known as: Model TFNT00

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Binocular Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA)

    BCDVA was assessed for both eyes together at a distance of 4 meters using letter charts and recorded in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR). The LogMAR VA scale ranges from -0.30 (20/10 Snellen) to 1.00 (20/200 Snellen). A LogMAR value of 0 equates to 20/20 Snellen VA (normal distance eyesight), with negative LogMAR values representing better than 20/20 VA. Subjects with at least one implanted eye with a toric IOL were categorized as toric as specified in the statistical analysis plan. No hypothesis testing was pre-specified for this endpoint.

    Time frame: Year 3-5 postoperative (Visit 1, Day 1)

  2. Number of Eyes Experiencing an Ocular Adverse Event by Toricity

    Ocular adverse events were identified retrospectively from chart review of operative and immediate postoperative activities and prospectively at Visit 1 (Year 3-5 postoperative). Examples of ocular adverse events include the following: * Cystoid Macular Edema (CME) * Hypopyon * Endophthalmitis * Lens dislocation * Pupillary block * Retinal detachment * Secondary Surgical Interventions (explantation/exchange/repositioning) This outcome measure was pre-specified for eye-based reporting.

    Time frame: Retrospective data from preoperative visit to Year 3-5 postoperative (Visit 1, Day 1)

  3. Number of Subjects Experiencing a Non-Ocular Adverse Event

    AEs were identified retrospectively from chart review of operative and immediate postoperative activities and prospectively at Visit 1 (Year 3-5 postoperative).

    Time frame: Retrospective data from preoperative visit to Year 3-5 postoperative (Visit 1, Day 1)

  4. Number of Device Deficiencies by Toricity

    Device deficiencies were identified retrospectively from chart review of operative and immediate postoperative activities and prospectively at Visit 1 (Year 3-5 postoperative). Examples of device deficiencies include the following: * Failure to meet product specifications (e.g., incorrect IOL power) * IOL defect * Broken IOL optic * Broken IOL haptic * Scratched IOL optic * Unsealed device packaging * Suspected product contamination * Lack of performance This outcome measure was pre-specified for eye-based reporting.

    Time frame: Retrospective data from preoperative visit to Year 3-5 postoperative (Visit 1, Day 1)

Adverse events

Collected over AEs were collected from preoperative visit through Day 1 enrollment, up to 5 years. All subjects were monitored for serious and other ocular and nonocular AEs. However, the nonocular AE arms were not considered at risk for ocular adverse event terms as the arms are reporting nonocular-specific AEs. Similarly, the ocular AE arms were not considered at risk for nonocular adverse event terms as the arms are reporting ocular-specific AEs. All-Cause Mortality was not monitored for the ocular arms.. Non-serious events are listed at a 5% frequency threshold.
