Study of a toric lens for cataract with astigmatism
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a cataract that needs surgery
- You have regular astigmatism (corneal curve) of at least 0.75 diopters in the eye being treated
- Your doctor expects your vision to be quite good (20/25 or better) after surgery
- You have not had eye surgery before that could affect the study

Other trials that look related to this one.
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.
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 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.
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 compares two types of artificial lenses placed during cataract surgery to see which one gives better vision for people with cataracts and astigmatism. You will receive the same type of lens in both eyes.
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.
