Recruiting studies
- NCT06924944Recruiting
A study of a new lens for people who had laser eye surgery
This study looks at how well a type of artificial lens (Clareon Vivity) works for people who have had laser eye surgery in the past and now need cataract surgery. It aims to see if this lens gives good vision without glasses.

Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 45 years+ - NCT07696130Recruiting
Trifocal lens implant study for cataract or presbyopia
This study tests a new type of trifocal lens implant to see how well it improves vision at all distances after cataract or lens replacement surgery. It may help you become less dependent on glasses.
Szczecin, ZachodnipomorskieAges 50–75 - NCT07051720Recruiting
Comparing advanced lenses for cataract surgery
This study compares five different advanced lenses (that give a range of focus) with a standard single-focus lens for cataract surgery. It aims to see which lens provides the best overall vision.
Ahaus, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 22–85 - NCT07452042Recruiting
Lens implant for astigmatism after corneal transplant and cataract surgery
This study tests a special implantable lens (toric AddOn intraocular lens) for people who have already had a corneal transplant and cataract surgery. The lens is designed to correct any remaining astigmatism (blurry vision from an irregular cornea) after the transplant, improving vision without additional surgery on the cornea.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 45–95 - NCT07468877Recruiting

Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07589894Enrolling by invitation
Vision outcomes after cataract surgery with TruPlus lenses
This study measures how well people see after cataract removal surgery using a special TruPlus intraocular lens (an artificial lens placed in the eye). Researchers want to understand if this lens helps patients see clearly at distance with minimal side effects.
Encino, CaliforniaAges 50–80 - NCT07317661Enrolling by invitation
LLM-based app for cataract lens choice education
This trial studies whether a large language model (an AI tool) can help explain intraocular lens options to patients before cataract surgery. If you're planning your first cataract surgery, you may be able to join.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05561478Recruiting
Toric versus non-toric cataract lens for clearer vision
This study compares vision outcomes after cataract surgery using two types of intraocular lenses: a toric lens (for astigmatism) versus a standard lens. It aims to see which lens helps people get clearer vision after surgery.
PerpignanAges 50 years+ - NCT07158177Recruiting
Comparing two multifocal lens implants for cataract surgery
This trial compares two types of multifocal lens implants (Clareon PanOptix vs. AcrySof PanOptix) to see which provides better contrast sensitivity. If you need cataract surgery and qualify for a multifocal lens that corrects both near and distance vision, this study may help you learn which option could work best for you.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT04553523Recruiting
Hydrus microstent study for open-angle glaucoma with cataracts
This study enrolls people who have cataracts and primary open-angle glaucoma that is being treated with eye drops. It will look at how well the Hydrus microstent works after approval, especially for lowering eye pressure safely.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 45 years+ - NCT07294716Recruiting
New lens for cataract patients with irregular corneas
This trial tests a special type of lens implant (asymmetric toric intraocular lens) for people having cataract surgery who also have an irregularly shaped cornea. The goal is to see if this lens can improve the quality of your vision after surgery.
LinzAges 21 years+ - NCT07325162Recruiting
New eye scanner for cataract patients
This study is testing a new optical device that measures the eye before cataract surgery. It may help doctors get more accurate measurements for your lens implant.
Hilton Head Island, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07325188Recruiting
Smart Guide for Toric Lens Positioning in Cataract Surgery
This trial tests a new guidance system to help doctors place toric lenses more accurately during cataract surgery. It may help people who need a toric lens to correct astigmatism.
Gainesville, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06446817Recruiting
High-add lens implant study for cataract patients
This study tests a new type of lens implant designed to help with both distance and near vision after cataract surgery. It is for people aged 50 and older with cataracts in both eyes who have not had any prior eye surgery.
MarseilleAges 50 years+ - NCT06781970Recruiting
Vitamin C for eye cell protection during cataract surgery
This trial tests whether taking vitamin C before and after cataract surgery can help protect the inner layer of the eye. It is for people aged 60 or older with hard, age-related cataracts who are having phacoemulsification surgery.
Jakarta, DKI JakartaAges 60 years+ - NCT06555289Recruiting
New lens implant after prior laser vision correction
This study tests a new type of artificial lens (Clareon PanOptix Pro) for people who have had LASIK or PRK in the past and now need cataract surgery. It aims to see how well the lens works for these patients, potentially improving vision after surgery.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 45 years+ - NCT07084545Recruiting
Cataract surgery lens for people with prior laser vision correction
This trial tests a special lens (CT LUCIA) for people who had laser vision correction in the past and now need cataract surgery. It aims to see how well the lens works in these patients.
Sugar Land, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07305987RecruitingPhase 3
Eye drop study for people after cataract surgery
This study tests a new anti-inflammatory eye drop (PRO-232) in people who had routine cataract surgery on one eye the day before. The goal is to see if it helps control swelling and pain without problems.
Tijuana, Estado de Baja CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01654159Enrolling by invitation
Study of vision and lens optics during cataract surgery
This study looks at how well your vision works and how different cataract surgery lens choices perform. It may help researchers better understand what affects sight after cataract surgery.
Birmingham, West MidlandsAges 40–85 - NCT05432245Enrolling by invitation
Glaucoma implant placed during cataract surgery
This trial looks at whether placing a small glaucoma implant at the same time as cataract surgery can better control eye pressure in people with primary open-angle glaucoma. It may help reduce the need for medicines or improve control, depending on how your eyes respond.
Panama CityAges 40 years+ - NCT06625749Recruiting
AccuraSee lens implant to improve near vision after cataract surgery
This trial tests an artificial lens (AccuraSee IOPCL) placed inside your eye to help you see better up close and at intermediate distances after having cataract surgery. It is for people who still need reading glasses and have a specific type of monofocal lens already in their eye.
Cleveland, OhioAges 22 years+ - NCT07232615Recruiting
Comparing two types of trifocal lenses for cataract surgery
