Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To assess the effectiveness of the Verion-LenSx guided arcuate incision technique to reduce astigmatism in a pseudophakic population.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Verion-LenSx
N/A

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of corneal arcuate incisions when they are performed with a femtosecond laser system on subjects who have had previous cataract surgery. The procedure to be used would not be different from that employed during cataract surgery, except that the only corneal incisions made would be the partial-depth arcuate incisions at the laser.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Verion-LenSx

The Verion-LenSx femtosecond laser system will be used to perform one or two corneal arcuate incisions.

Procedure: Verion-LenSx
The Verion-LenSx femtosecond laser system will be used to create one or two partial-depth corneal arcuate incisions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Uncorrected Monocular Distance Visual Acuity [60 days (+/- 10 days) after laser treatment]

    Uncorrected monocular distance visual acuity, measured on a logMAR scale, (logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution) which is a measure of visual acuity in which the smaller values indicate better visual acuity.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Corneal Astigmatism [60 days (+/- 10 days) after laser treatment]

    Vector change in the astigmatism measured on the cornea, in diopters

  2. Change in Refractive Cylinder [60 days (+/- 10 days) after laser treatment]

    The vector change in refractive cylinder in diopters

  3. Spectacle Independence at Distance [60 days (+/- 10 days) after laser treatment]

    Percentage of subjects that do not rely on spectacles for distance vision
