Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?This trial is studying special lenses used in cataract surgery for patients needing surgery in both eyes. These lenses help provide clear vision at various distances. The study aims to see how well these lenses work with a mini-monovision approach, where one eye is set for distance vision and the other for near vision. Mini-monovision corrects one eye for distance vision and the other eye for near vision, providing high patient satisfaction and reduced spectacle dependence.
Do I need to stop my current medications for the trial?

The trial information does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications.

What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment Clareon Vivity IOLs with Mini-Monovision for Aphakia?

Research on similar toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) shows they can effectively correct vision issues like astigmatism (a condition where the eye doesn't focus light evenly on the retina). Studies on AcrySof toric IOLs, which are similar to Clareon Vivity, indicate they improve visual acuity (sharpness of vision) and stability in patients with cataracts and corneal astigmatism.

Is the Clareon Vivity IOL safe for humans?

Research on similar Clareon intraocular lenses (IOLs) shows they are generally safe for humans, with studies evaluating their safety over periods up to three years.

How is the Clareon Vivity IOL treatment different from other treatments for aphakia?

Clareon Vivity IOLs offer a unique approach by providing extended depth-of-focus, which can improve vision at multiple distances without the need for glasses, and are designed for stability and reduced optical disturbances. This treatment is particularly novel because it targets micromonovision, allowing one eye to focus slightly better at a different distance, enhancing overall visual performance.

Eligibility Criteria

This trial is for adults with bilateral age-related cataracts who need both eyes operated on. They should have a potential post-op vision of 20/25 or better, require specific IOL powers, and be able to undergo two surgeries within 21 days using Clareon Vivity lenses. People with irregular astigmatism, eye diseases like glaucoma or macular degeneration, previous eye surgeries, or other conditions affecting vision are not eligible.

Participant Groups

The study is examining the effectiveness of Clareon Vivity and Clareon Vivity Toric intraocular lenses in achieving mini-monovision after cataract surgery. The dominant eye will be set for clear distance vision (emmetropia) while the non-dominant eye will be slightly nearsighted (-0.50).
