Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Percent Loss of Endothelial Cells [2 months following surgery]

    Percentage of corneal endothelial cells lost 2 months after surgery as compared to the number of corneal endothelial cells measured before the operation. Corneal Endothelial Cells are measured by counting the number of cells on an image taken by specular microscope.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Aqueous Signs - Corneal Edema [1 day after surgery]

    Measured as the percentage of patient's eyes subjectively evaluated to have corneal edema at each of the following gradings: 0 - None - Mild, slight localized or generalized edema - Moderate, significant localized or generalized edema - Severe, advanced localized or generalized edema

  2. Aqueous Signs - Aqueous Flare [1 day following surgery]

    Measured as the percentage of patient's eyes subjectively evaluated to have Aqueous Flare at each of the following gradings: 0-None: No visible flare when compared with the normal eye. Mild: Flare visible against dark papillary background but not visible against iris background. Moderate: Flare is visible with the slit-lamp beam aimed onto the iris surface as well as the dark papillary background. Severe: Very dense flare. May also present as a hazy appearance of anterior segment structures when viewed with low power magnification of the slit-lamp.

  3. Aqueous Signs - Aqueous Cells [1 day following surgery]

    Measured as the percentage of patient's eyes subjectively evaluated to have Aqueous Cells at each of the following gradings: 0 - None - 1 to 5 cells - 6 to 15 cells - 16 to 30 cells - >30 cells

  4. Intraocular Pressure (IOP) [1 day following surgery]

    Measure of intraocular pressure of a patient's eye via tonometry one day after surgery. Measured in mmHg. Normal intraocular pressure between 10 mmHg and 20 mmHg.

  5. Physician Survey - Anterior Chamber Dome Maintenance During Anterior Capsulotomy [Time of Surgery]

    Surgeon reporting of Anterior Chamber Dome Maintenance of a patient's eye During Anterior Capsulotomy. Evaluated on a subjective scale and reported as percent by response. The following scale is used, from worst to best: Flat, Shallow, Working Space Adequate, Full Chamber Maintenance.

  6. Physician Survey - Anterior Chamber Dome Maintenance During Phacoemulsification [Time of Surgery]

    Surgeon reporting of Anterior Chamber Dome Maintenance of a patient's eye during Phacoemulsification. Evaluated on a subjective scale and reported as percent by response. The following scale is used, from worst to best: Flat, Shallow, Working Space Adequate, Full Chamber Maintenance

  7. Physician Survey - Anterior Chamber Dome Maintenance During IOL Insertion [Time of Surgery]

    Surgeon reporting of Anterior Chamber Dome Maintenance During Intraocular Lens (IOL) insertion into a patient's eye. Evaluated on a subjective scale and reported as percent by response. The scale, from worst to best, is as follows: Flat, Shallow, Working Space Adequate, Full Chamber Maintenance

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details Preoperatively, subjects were examined to ensure they met the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Patients were >49 years of age, of any race and either gender. Patients had operable cataracts in at least one eye and were able to provide informed consent
Pre-assignment Detail As access to Ophthalmic Viscosurgical Devices (OVDs) was limited, patients received whichever OVD was in stock at the time of surgery. 51 patients had a different OVD used in each eye. As a result, their demographic data is included in 2 OVD groups, resulting in a total of 224 patients (when group totals are added).
