About this study

Official title: The Effect of a Blue Light Filtering Intraocular Lens on Blood Retinal Barrier After Cataract Surgery

To compare the effect on blood retinal barrier disruption 3 and 12 months after implantation of either a blue light filtering intraocular lens(blue-filtering IOL) or an ultraviolet light filtering intraocular lens(UV-filtering IOL).

Read the detailed description

The following parameters were measured for evaluation of blood retinal barrier disruption.

  • the incidence of macular leakage by fluorescence angiography (FA)
  • the mean fluorescein concentration in the vitreous by fluorophotometry (VFP)
  • the thickness of the macula by optical coherence tomography (OCT)

Results

  • the incidence fo macular leakage decreased significantly from 24%(3 months) to 5% (12 months) in the blue-filtering IOL group (P<0.05), and was significantly lower compared with the UV-filtering IOL group at 12 months.
  • the VFP significantly decreased in both group from 3 to 12 months.
  • the OCT decreased from 175 (3 months) to 166 um (12 months) in the blue- filtering IOL group.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing intraocular lens implantation in people with to Compare the Effect of Two Types of IOLs and on the Incidence of Cystoid Macular Edema, run by Showa University at 1 site in Japan.

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 2 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

To measure FA, VEP and OCT. (time frame: At 3 and 12 months after IOL implantation). 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 12 Dec 2007.
