Combined 25-gauge Vitrectomy and Cataract Surgery With Toric Intraocular Lens With Idiopathic Epiretinal Membrane.

A study testing Vitrectomy with cataract surgery and toric IOL and Vitrectomy with cataract surgery and common IOL in people with Cataract and Epiretinal Membrane, run by Kagawa University at 1 site in Japan.

Unknown status

Trial summary

Toric intraocular lens (IOL) is now widely used for the cataract surgery with preoperative corneal astigmatism. Symptomatic epiretinal membrane (ERM) is often treated with 25-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy, resulting in good visual recovery. Read more about this study

About this study

Toric intraocular lens (IOL) is now widely used for the cataract surgery with preoperative corneal astigmatism.

Symptomatic epiretinal membrane (ERM) is often treated with 25-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy, resulting in good visual recovery. So far, however, limited information is available on the the stability of axis rotation, astigmatism correction, and improvement in uncorrected distance visual acuity, using astigmatism-correcting IOL in a 25-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy combined with cataract surgery. In the current study, eyes with a preoperative corneal cylinder of more than 0.75 diopter had a triple procedure for idiopathic ERM using a toric IOL. Outcome measures will be the amount of IOL axis rotation, uncorrected visual acuity, corrected distance visual acuity, and corneal and refractive astigmatism up to 6 months postoperatively. We are expecting to show that postoperative IOL axis stability is similar to that reported for cataract surgery alone in vitrectomy (triple procedure) for idiopathic ERM with a toric IOL.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vitrectomy with cataract surgery and toric IOL and Vitrectomy with cataract surgery and common IOL in people with Cataract and Epiretinal Membrane, run by Kagawa 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 3 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Japan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The degree of IOL axis rotation from the end of surgery (time frame: Six months after the inplantation). 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 7 Mar 2018.
