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.

Interventions

  • BehavioralVFQ- 25 (Visual Function Questionnaire)

    VFQ-25 questionnaire was used to evaluate patient satisfaction at the M3 and M12 visits.

  • Diagnostic testOptical Biometry

    Axial length, anterior chamber depth and corneal keratometric values K1-K2. All these parameters were measured at the screening visit and at the month 3 follow-up visit, using the ARGOS® Biometer or the ANTERION® Cataract App

  • Diagnostic testSlit lamps / Fundoscopy / Biomicroscopy

    The fundus and other ocular structures, such as the cornea, anterior chamber, iris, pupil, crystalline lens / IOL alignment, corpus ciliare and choroid were examined at screening visit, on the day of the surgery, and at the follow up visits D1, M1, M3, M6, and M12, using the slit lamp binocular indirect ophthalmoscopy.

  • Diagnostic testUDVA

    Monocular and binocular Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity (UDVA) was evaluated at all visits (preoperative, D1, M1, M3, M6 and M12), using the ETDRS chart.

  • Diagnostic testCDVA

    Monocular and binocular Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (UDVA) was evaluated at all visits (preoperative, D1, M1, M3, M6 and M12), using the ETDRS chart.

  • Diagnostic testUIVA / DCIVA

    Uncorrected and Distance Corrected Intermediate Visual acuity (UIVA / DCIVA) was evaluated postoperatively at M1, M3, M6 and M12, using an intermediate chart from 67 cm.

    Uncorrected and Distance Corrected Near Visual acuity (UNVA / DCNVA) was evaluated postoperatively at M1, M3, M6 and M12, using a near chart from 40 cm.

  • Diagnostic testManifest Refraction

    Manifest refraction was the monocular subjective refraction (Sph, Cyl, Axis) giving the best distance corrected visual acuity. It was measured at the screening visit and the follow-up visits Day 1, Month 1, Month 3, Month 6 and Month 12.

  • Diagnostic testIOP

    Intraocular pressure (IOP) was measured at all visits (preoperative, D1, M1, M3, M6 and M12), using a non-contact tonometer.

  • Diagnostic testVADC

    Visual Acuity Defocus Curve (VADC) was taken monocularly at M3, monocularly and binocularly at M6 and binocularly at M12, using the Multifocal Lens analyzer - MLA application.

  • Diagnostic testCSDC

    Contrast Sinsitivity Defocus Curve (CSDC) was taken under photopic conditions at M6 and M12, using the Multifocal Lens Analyzer - MLA application

  • Diagnostic testCSV-1000

    Contrast Sensitivity was measured using the CSV-1000 with distance correction in place at spatial frequencies of 3, 6, 12, and 18 cycles per degree (cpd). Measurements were taken under four different light conditions: * Photopic (M3 monocular and binocular, M6 binocular and M12 monocular) * Mesopic (M6 binocular) * Photopic with backlight (M6 binocular) * Mesopic with backlight (M6 binocular)
