Cataract Clinical Trials

The current postoperative cataract surgery eye drop regimen used at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital (ZSFG) is a significant burden for its patient population, contributing to high rates of non-adherence and the development of postoperative complications. The investigators propose to replace this complex regimen with a single administration of intraocular antibiotic and subconjunctival steroid at the time of surgery. This pilot study will obtain the preliminary data required to eventually fully evaluate this innovation in postoperative care in a safety-net population with respect to postoperative outcomes, patient compliance, and patient and caregiver satisfaction.

This research study is evaluating the safety and efficacy (performance) of the Bausch + Lomb enVista Beyond Hydrophobic Acrylic Extended Depth of Focus Intraocular Lens (IOL) in subjects who receive this IOL in both eyes. Read Less

Prospective, randomized, multicenter, multi-arm, subject and vision-assessor-masked, two stage study with Stage 1 as a three-arm initial enrollment period, followed by Stage 2 as a head-to-head study refined based on the Stage 1 data. Read Less

A Phase 3/4, Prospective, Randomized, Active Treatment-Controlled, Parallel-Design, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety of DEXYCUfor the Treatment of Inflammation Following Ocular Surgery for Childhood Cataract Read Less

The overall five-year goals of the project are to develop novel technology to provide actionable new information through provision of live volumetric imaging during surgery, improving surgical practice and outcomes. The investigators believe this technology will enable novel ophthalmic and other microsurgeries not possible due to current limitations in surgical visualization. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the potential refractive outcomes using the Argos 1.5 biometer in the surgical planning for cataract extraction to that obtained from IOLMaster 700. Both devices are used as standard of care in surgical planning optimization for patients undergoing cataract surgery. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to verify the post-market safety of the IC-8 Apthera IOL after the treatment of posterior capsular opacification (PCO), an expected complication related to IC-8 Apthera IOL implantation. Read Less

This is a multicenter, 2-arm, randomized, prospective study of patients slated for bilateral cataract extraction. One eye will be randomized to the Study Arm, and the fellow eye will be randomized to the Control Arm. Read Less

This study is a Single center, single arm, prospective, observational study of clinical outcomes following bilateral cataract surgery and Clareon PanOptix implantation. Subjects will be assessed preoperatively, and at 1 and 3 months postoperatively. Clinical evaluations will include administration of the QUVID and IOLSAT questionnaires, manifest refraction, topography, as well as measurement of visual acuities at distance, intermediate, and near.

This study is designed to determine how well patients with glaucoma can see following cataract surgery with a special type of lens called an extended-depth-of-focus (EDOF) lens. This lens is intended to reduced the patients need for glasses following cataract surgery. Patients will also undergo a minimally invasive type of glaucoma surgery using a special type of stent to reduce eye pressure, with the goal of better glaucoma control and the reduction in the need for medications to control eye pressure.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if MELT-300 works on procedural sedation in adult participants undergoing cataract extraction with lens replacement (CELR). It will also learn about the safety of MELT-300. Researchers will compare MELT-300 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if MELT-300 works on procedural sedation in adult participants undergoing CELR. Researchers will also include a comparator SL midazolam to confirm the benefit of inclusion of ketamine in the combined drug product. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does MELT-300 is effective in comparison to placebo on procedural sedation for cataract surgery? 2. To determine the effectiveness of MELT-300 compared with midazolam on procedural sedation (to determine the contribution of ketamine component and inform the risk of ketamine in MELT-300) 3. To determine the time to achieve preoperative target sedation level with MELT-300 4. What medical problems do participants have when taking MELT-300 vs placebo Eligible participants will admitted to the study unit on Day 1. Participants will be randomized prior to surgery 4:1:1 to 1. MELT-300 (i.e. 1 MELT-300 sublingual tablet which contains 3 mg midazolam and 50 mg of ketamine) 2. Midazolam (i.e. 1 matching midazolam sublingual tablet which contains 3 mg midazolam) 3. Placebo (i.e. 1 matching placebo sublingual tablet) Participants will receive study medication 30 (± 5) minutes, without food or water, before planned surgery start (defined as instillation of topical ocular anesthetic gel \[i.e.. 3 drops of chloroprocaine hydrochloride ophthalmic gel)\]. The effectiveness of MELT-300 will be performed after study medication is administered before surgery, in the course of surgery, and postoperative on Day 1 (end of surgery defined as just prior to drape removal). The safety of MELT-300 will be performed at baseline, in the course of surgery, postoperatively on Day 1, and on Day 3 ± 1 day post dose of study medication. Read Less

This is a clinical trial evaluating Ketorolac levels in vitreous and aqueous humor samples from patients undergoing combined cataract and pars plana vitrectomy surgeries with and without intracameral phenylephrine 1.0% / ketorolac 0.3% (OMIDRIA). Patients not receiving intracameral OMIDRIA will receive topical ketorolac prior to cataract surgery/pars plana vitrectomy. Read Less
