Study Arms (2)

SBL-3 multifocal intraocular lens

EXPERIMENTAL

The SBL-3 intraocular lens will be implanted after the cataractous natural lens has been removed, in those patients randomized into this group

Device: SBL-3 multifocal intraocular lens

Control monofocal intraocular lens

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The Control intraocular lens will be implanted after the cataractous natural lens has been removed, in those patients randomized into this group

Device: Control monofocal intraocular lens

Interventions

Eligibility Criteria

Age22 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • ≥ 22 years of age, of any race and either gender
  • Operable, age related cataract grade in both eyes
  • Patients who require an intraocular lens (IOL) power in the range of 15 D - 30 D only
  • Able to comprehend and sign a statement of informed consent
  • Calculated lens power within the available supply range
  • Planned cataract removal by phacoemulsification
  • Potential postoperative visual acuity of 0.2 Logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR) or better in both eyes
  • In good general and ocular health
  • Patients with preoperative astigmatism ≤1.0 D Note: Corneal incisions made to reduce astigmatism will not be allowed during the course of the study.
  • Clear intraocular media other than cataract in study eyes
  • Preoperative Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) worse than 0.2 logMAR
  • The subject must be able to undergo second eye surgery between 7 days and 30 days of the first eye surgery
  • Able to competently complete testing
  • Willing and able to attend study visits

You may not qualify if:

  • Previous intraocular surgery
  • Preoperative photopic pupil size of \< 2.75 mm
  • Previous corneal refractive surgery
  • Any inflammation or edema (swelling) of the cornea
  • Subjects with diagnosed degenerative visual disorders (e.g. macular degeneration or other retinal disorders ) that are predicted to cause future acuity losses to a level worse than 0.2 logMAR
  • Subjects who may reasonably be expected to require a secondary surgical intervention at any time during the study (other than neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (nd:YAG) capsulotomy)
  • Amblyopia
  • Clinically significant ptosis
  • Clinically severe corneal dystrophy (eg., epithelial, stromal, or endothelial dystrophy), keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis, keratouveitis, keratopathy, or kerectasia
  • Diabetic Retinopathy
  • Extremely shallow anterior chamber, not due to swollen cataract
  • Microphthalmia
  • Previous retinal detachment
  • Previous corneal transplant
  • Severe dry eye
  • +18 more criteria
