Testing a new toric lens for cataract and astigmatism
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new toric intraocular lens (a replacement lens for the eye) designed to fix both cataracts and corneal astigmatism (an uneven cornea that blurs vision). If you are planning cataract surgery or a lens exchange and have astigmatism that needs correcting, this lens may be an option for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have cataracts and/or corneal astigmatism, and you need cataract surgery or a lens replacement.
- Your doctor has recommended a special toric lens (with at least 1.0 diopter of cylinder correction) to correct your vision.
- You have no other serious eye problems like glaucoma, retinal detachment, past eye surgery, or irregular cornea shape.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you are not taking steroid medications or other eye drops for another condition.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests new enhanced monofocal intraocular lenses (special lens implants) to see if they improve vision after cataract surgery. It is for people with age-related cataracts in both eyes who are otherwise healthy.
This study tests a special lens implant (toric lens) for people having cataract surgery who also have astigmatism. The lens corrects both the cataract and the astigmatism, potentially giving you clearer distance vision without glasses.
This study compares three types of toric lenses (lenses that correct both cataracts and astigmatism) to see how well they stay in place after surgery. It may help you choose the best lens for your cataract surgery.
This trial tests a specific cataract replacement lens to see how safe it is and how well it improves vision. If you have cataracts in both eyes and are good candidate for cataract surgery, this lens may help you see more clearly after surgery.
This study compares two types of advanced lens implants (Alcon Vivity Toric and RxSight LAL+) for people with cataracts and astigmatism. The goal is to see which lens gives better vision after surgery.
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.
