Study Summary

This trial is testing two different intraocular lenses (IOLs) to see which one provides better vision for cataract patients. The study will compare the clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction of the two IOLs.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals aged 40 or older who need cataract surgery in both eyes and want to be free from glasses. They should have less than 0.75 D of astigmatism after the operation, be able to give consent, and follow study rules. People with previous eye surgeries, trauma, certain eye conditions like glaucoma or macular degeneration that affect vision clarity are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests two types of intraocular lenses (IOLs) - Tecnis Synergy and Symfony Optiblue - by implanting one type in each eye of a patient after cataract removal. The goal is to see if patients can see well at all distances without glasses and help surgeons choose the best IOL for future patients.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, generally speaking, risks associated with intraocular lens implants include inflammation, infection risk increase post-surgery, visual disturbances such as glare or halos around lights, and potential lens dislocation.

Answered by AI

What outcome is this research endeavor attempting to prove?

"This research study has a three month evaluation period, with binocular distance-corrected near visual acuity under photopic conditions as the primary objective. Secondary objectives include subjective patient satisfaction and PRSIQ scores of spectacle independence, mean logMAR uncorrected binocular distance vision at 66 cm, and intermediate visual acuity also measured in logMAR units."
