Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 50 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Unilateral or bilateral cataract
  • Eligible for phacoemulsification with primary implantation of a posterior chamber IOL. If bilateral, patient will receive the same IOL than the fellow eye.
  • Expected maximum of 4 weeks and minimum of 1 week interval between primary and second eye surgeries when bilateral.
  • Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) should be no better than 20/40 in the presence of a glare source using Snellen visual acuity. In the Snellen visual acuity chart, better than 20/40 will be at least 3 letters read correctly in the 20/30 line.
  • Naturally dilated pupil (in dim light) ≥ 4.0 mm in both eyes.

Who cannot join

  • Preoperative ocular pathology potentially affecting visual acuity
  • Previous intraocular or corneal surgery.
  • Keratometric astigmatism exceeding 1.5 diopters.
  • Planned postoperative refraction for mono-vision.
  • Current contact lens usage.
  • Other ocular surgery at the time of the cataract extraction.
Show all 24Show fewer
  • Uncontrolled diabetes.
  • Any neurological condition that might interfere with performance of required test.
  • Auto-immune deficiency disease.
  • Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study device implantation or may interfere with the interpretation of study results.
  • Use of any systemic or topical drug known to interfere with visual performance.
  • Surgical Exclusion Criteria
  • Significant anterior chamber bleeding.
  • Detached Descemet's membrane
  • Iris damage
  • Posterior capsule rupture
  • Radial tear in capsulorhexis
  • Vitreous loss
  • Zonular rupture.
  • Use of corneal sutures for more than 1 week.
  • Post-implantation Exclusion Criteria
  • Haptic not in the capsular bag.
  • Descentration of the IOL of more than 1.0 mm
  • Ocular pathologies potentially affecting visual acuity that were not evident prior to surgery.

About this study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Acrysof single piece (SA60AT) and Acrysof IQ (SN60WF) in people with Cataract Extraction, run by Medical University of South Carolina.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 24 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Contrast sensitivity. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Aug 2006; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
