Eligibility criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Understand and sign an ethics committee-approved form;
  • Willing and able to attend all scheduled study visits as required by the protocol;
  • Planned cataract surgery (both eyes);
  • Preoperative corneal astigmatism less that 1.00 diopter in each eye.
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria may apply.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Women of if currently pregnant, intend to become pregnant during the study, or are breastfeeding;
  • Ocular conditions as specified in the protocol;
  • Subjects who desire monovision correction.
  • Other protocol-defined exclusion criteria 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.

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.

Interventions

  • DeviceCPO Pro IOL

    Intraocular lens (IOL) implanted in the eye for the visual correction of aphakia in adult patients with less than 1 diopter of preexisting corneal astigmatism in whom a cataractous lens has been removed. The IOL is intended to mitigate the effects of presbyopia on intermediate and near visual acuity while maintaining comparable distance visual acuity. The Clareon™ PanOptix™ Pro Trifocal IOL is designed to enhance distance image quality by reducing chromatic aberration.

    Also known as: Clareon PanOptix Pro Trifocal IOL, Model PAYWT0

  • DeviceCPO IOL

    Intraocular lens (IOL) implanted in the eye for the visual correction of aphakia in adult patients with less than 1 diopter of preexisting corneal astigmatism in whom a cataractous lens has been removed. The IOL is intended to mitigate the effects of presbyopia on intermediate and near visual acuity while maintaining distance visual acuity.

  • ProcedureCataract Surgery

    Extraction of the cataractous lens by phacoemulsification, followed by implantation of the IOL

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Monocular Photopic Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA)

    Visual Acuity (VA) was assessed for each eye individually using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) reading charts at a distance of 4 meters from the subject under photopic (well-lit) conditions with correction in place. BCDVA was measured in logarithm Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR). LogMAR values typically range from -0.3 (20/10 vision on the Snellen chart) to 1 (20/200 vision), with lower scores indicating better vision.

    Time frame: Month 2 postoperative

Adverse events

Collected over Adverse Events (AEs) were collected from time of consent to study exit, approximately 6 months. AEs were obtained through solicited and spontaneous comments from subjects and through observations by the investigator. "At Risk" population for ocular AEs is reported in units of eyes; all other populations are reported in units of subjects. This analysis population includes all eyes with attempted implantation (successful or aborted after contact with the eye).. Non-serious events are listed at a 5% frequency threshold.

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 Jun 2024 to primary completion in Dec 2024, 5 months.

Results were first posted in Jan 2026, 1 year after primary completion.

Of 32 industry-sponsored interventional studies with no phase under Aphakia, half reached primary completion within 17 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 23. This study's 5 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 37 studies reached it within 17 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 26.

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 Jun 2, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
