Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Ocular surface disease potentially affecting study results
  • Pre-existing ocular pathology or history of pathology potentially affecting the study results
  • Acute or chronic disease or illness that would increase risk or confound study results

  • Instability of keratometry or biometry measurements
  • Traumatic cataract
  • Amblyopia
  • History of ocular trauma or any prior ocular surgery including refractive procedures

  • Concurrent participation in another drug or device investigation
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.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Distance Corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA)

    To demonstrate the difference in monocular DCNVA between the High Add lens and the LuxGood monofocal lens by means of statistical significance.

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  2. Best corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA)

    To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the Lux High Add lens compared with the monofocal control LuxGood lens in terms of BCDVA by means of statistical significance.

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes

  1. Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity (UDVA)

    Uncorrected photopic visual acuity at far in monocular and binocular with LuxHighAdd lens compared to LuxGood lens.

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  2. Uncorrected Intermediate Visual Acuity (UIVA)

    Uncorrected photopic visual acuity at intermediate distance in monocular and binocular with LuxHighAdd lens compared to LuxGood lens.

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  3. Uncorrected Near Visual Acuity (UNVA)

    Uncorrected photopic visual acuity at near distance in monocular and binocular with LuxHighAdd lens compared to LuxGood lens.

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  4. Distance Corrected Intermediate Visual Acuity (DCIVA)

    Photopic visual acuity at intermediate distance in monocular and binocular with best distance correction with LuxHighAdd lens compared to LuxGood lens.

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  5. Manifest Refraction

    Manifest subjective refraction

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  6. Defocus curve

    Binocular defocus curve with the distance correction

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  7. Adverse events rates

    Adverse events rates

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  8. Contrast Sensitivity

    Contrast Sensitivity in binocular conditions with distance correction

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  9. Halo and glare scores

    Halos and glare assessed with a simulator

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  10. Patient-reported outcomes: Quality of vision Questionnaire

    Assessment of quality of vision (CatQuest-9SF)

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  11. Patient-reported outcomes: Spectacle independance Questionnaire

    Assessment of spectacle independence (PRSIQ questionnaire )

    Time frame: 4/6 months after surgery

  12. Patient-reported outcomes: open-ended question

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

Started Dec 2024 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Sep 2028, 45 months after the start.

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 45 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 May 26, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
