Wide-focus lens for cataract surgery: a clinical trial
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of lens implant that gives you a wider range of clear vision after cataract surgery. It uses a special laser to help remove the cataract, and the lens may help you see better at near, far, and in between without glasses.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 80 years old and have age-related cataracts.
- Your astigmatism (eye shape causing blur) is very mild — less than 0.75 units as measured by your doctor.
- You have not had any eye surgery or serious eye injury in the past.
- You do not have other eye diseases like glaucoma, retinal detachment, or diabetic eye damage.
- You are healthy enough for surgery and can cooperate during the procedure.

This study tests whether a small ring placed around the lens implant during cataract surgery helps keep the implant stable for people with high myopia (severe nearsightedness). It could lead to better vision and fewer complications after surgery.
This study tests a new type of lens implant that helps you see clearly at multiple distances after cataract surgery. It compares two ways to set the lens: one aiming for perfect distance vision in both eyes, and another that leaves one eye slightly nearsighted to improve reading vision.
This trial compares two types of artificial lenses (intraocular lenses) used during cataract surgery: enhanced monofocal and extended depth of focus (EDoF) lenses. It aims to see which lens gives better vision for everyday activities.
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 extended depth of focus (EDOF) lens implants to see how well they improve vision after cataract surgery. It may help people who need both distance and near vision without glasses.
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.
