Clinical Evaluation of the Bioli IOL Delivery System (BIOLI-D)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Cataract surgery is one of the most frequent surgeries carried out in the world. After cataract extraction an intraocular lens (IOL) is implanted in order to compensate for the crystalline lens power and correct patient's vision. In order to allow cataract extraction and IOL insertion, during the surgery a small incision is performed by the surgeon. This incision is performed using surgical knives, and a smaller incisiĆ³n is associated with less postoperatory inflammation, faster corneal wound healing, and faster visual recovery. Several studies reported the importance of smaller incisions to reduce the risk of surgically induced astigmatism.
In order to implant the IOL through this small incision, the IOL must be preloaded in a injector that allows introducing the IOL eficiently and consistently. The manual injector BIOLI manufactured by AST Products (model D), CE approved, is designed specifically to allow the IOL insertion safely, precisely, and controllably. Among the main characteristics of this delivery system is its design to minimize the incision size widening while inserting the IOL.
The present retrospective study aims to provide more information with regards to the clinical efficacy of the BIOLI-D delivery system for the implantation of the trifocal Asqelio TFLIO130C IOL in patients submitted to cataract surgery. This will be assessed by analyzing the change in incision size after IOL implantation and the incidence of adverse events during and after the procedure.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Incision size after incision [Immediately after clear incision is performed]
Determined using a Capsulorhexis Incision Gauge Set, in mm.
- Incision size before IOL implantation [Immediately after phacoemulsification is complete]
Determined using a Capsulorhexis Incision Gauge Set, in mm.
- Incision size after IOL implantation [Immediately after IOL implantation]
Determined using a Capsulorhexis Incision Gauge Set, in mm.
- Adverse events [During or after the surgical procedure]
Incidence of adverse events related to the use of the device, coded according to the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities, and analyzed per eye (ocular), and per subject (non ocular)
Secondary Outcome Measures
