A study to evaluate the real-world clinical performance of the enVista Aspire and Aspire Toric intraocular lens (IOL) models EA and ETA and to assess surgeon and subject satisfaction Read Less

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

The aim of this study is to investigate the 3-month visual performance of the CT LUCIA 621P IOL, a hydrophobic aspheric monofocal IOL with a non-constant aspheric optic profile in adult patients 50 years of age or older who are undergoing cataract surgery. Read Less

The long-term goal of this project is to utilize very high-speed optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology to guide surgical treatments of corneal diseases. OCT is well known for its exquisite resolution, but until recently it has not had sufficient speed to capture the shape of the cornea because of eye motion during OCT scanning. The development of Fourier-domain (FD) OCT technology has made the requisite speed possible. The objective of this project is to develop methods for imaging the cornea with an FD-OCT system that will precisely measure corneal shape and use this information to guide surgery. Cataract surgery in patients with previous laser vision correction often leads to significant near- or far-sightedness, a problem that could be resolved by using a more accurate intraocular lens power selection formula based on the measurement of corneal refractive power with OCT.

This is a prospective comparative study that will be conducted at one clinical site in the United States, in which subjects who sign an informed consent form and fulfil all inclusion and exclusion criteria, will have OCT scans obtained using the test and the predicate devices. There will be two main types of analyses performed as part of this study, including 1) a precision analysis, and 2) an agreement analysis. The precision analyses will be conducted utilizing all complete complements of acceptable scans from the test devices and predicate device for each of the 3 configurations. A complete complement of acceptable scans can be defined as subjects having 3 acceptable replicate scans on each of the 3 devices, at each of the 3 configurations. This is also synonymous with 3 scans for each of the 3 configurations on all 3 devices. If subjects have more than 3 acceptable scans per configuration on a device, only the first 3 will be considered for analyses. The agreement analysis will be conducted utilizing the first set of acceptable scans from each instrument for all overlapping measurement types (for all measurement types two or more of the devices have in common) related to performance endpoints.

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.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of antecedent intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy vs. Ozurdex in reducing post-cataract surgery related macular edema in patients with pre-existing diabetic macular edema. Read Less

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the AcrySof PanOptix Intraocular Lens (IOL) for binocular distance corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA) compared to TECNIS Synergy IOL. Presbyopia correcting diffractive intraocular implants (extended depth of focus, multifocal, and trifocal) provide cataract and refractive surgeons with an effective treatment means for allowing patients to experience increased spectacle independence post-cataract surgery.

The two main objectives of this study are to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of implanting the PanOptix Trifocal IOL in patients who have had previous myopic Lasik. The primary objectives to demonstrate clinical safety will be the quality of vision questionnaire (QUVID) which will demonstrate the patient's perception of halos, glares, and starbursts before and after the implantation of the trifocal IOL. The primary objective to demonstrate clinical effectiveness will be done by measuring visual outcomes at distance, intermediate, and near. In addition, the patients will also fill out the spectacle independence questionnaire (IOLSAT Questionnaire) to determine their level of glasses independence postoperatively. In addition, at the conclusion of the study the patient will also fill out a patient satisfaction survey. Read Less
