Trial summary

In modern cataract surgery, residual astigmatism continues to be one of the major factors influencing patients' visual quality and satisfaction. The goal of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy in one eye and Toric intraocular lens implantation in the contralateral eye… Read more about this study

About this study

In modern cataract surgery, residual astigmatism continues to be one of the major factors influencing patients' visual quality and satisfaction. The goal of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy in one eye and Toric intraocular lens implantation in the contralateral eye for astigmatism correction in patients undergoing femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery. The study is a prospective randomized comparative study. Patients with binocular regular corneal astigmatism ranging from 0.75 to 3.00 D will be recruited. The patient will randomly receive femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy in one eye and receive Toric intraocular lens implantation in the contralateral eye. Long term evaluation will be performed to compare the visual acuity, subjective manifest refraction, and corneal topography between groups.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomyProcedure or surgery

    The patient will receive femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy and femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery with implantation of a monofocal intraocular lens in one eye.

  • Toric intraocular lens implantationProcedure or surgery

    The patient will receive femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery with implantation of a Toric monofocal intraocular lens in the contralateral eye.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Femtosecond laser arcuate keratotomy and Toric intraocular lens implantation in people with Cataract and Astigmatism, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 5 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 22 Jan 2024. 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 China. 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?

Contact Yueyang Zhong (+8618868125901, yyzbzhong@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Refractive astigmatism (time frame: 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 1year postoperatively). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06215807, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 22 Jan 2024.
