Post-Market Clinical Investigation of the Clareon® IOL

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term (3 years) visual acuity and adverse event outcomes for the Clareon® Intraocular Lens (IOL). A comparison to historical safety and performance endpoint (SPE) rates as reported in the European Standard International Organization for Standardization (EN ISO) 11979-7:2014 will be conducted at one year. The secondary purpose of this study is to evaluate the visual acuity outcomes with the Clareon IOL at Years 2 and 3.

About this study

Subjects will attend a total of 12 study visits over a period of approximately 36 months: One preoperative screening visit, two operative visits, and nine post-implantation visits. Both eyes will be implanted, with the second eye implantation to occur 2-21 days after the first. Primary endpoint data will be collected at the Year 1 visit (Day 330-420 post-implantation from second eye surgery).

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of First Implanted Eyes Achieving Best-Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) of 0.3 Logarithm Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR) or Better at 1 Year Post-Implantation

    Time frame: Year 1 post-implantation from second eye surgery

    Visual acuity (VA) was tested for the first implanted eye using the correction obtained from the manifest refraction and 100% contrast electronic Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts at a distance of 4 meters (m) from the eye. VA was measured in logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR), with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR is equivalent to 20/40 Snellen visual acuity. VA was compared to the historical safety and performance endpoint (SPE) of 92.5% [as reported in the European Standard International Organization for Standardization (EN ISO) 11979-7:2014].

  2. Percentage of Second Implanted Eyes Achieving BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR or Better at 1 Year Post-Implantation

    Time frame: Year 1 post-implantation from second eye surgery

    VA was tested for the second implanted eye using the correction obtained from the manifest refraction and 100% contrast electronic ETDRS charts at a distance of 4 m from the eye. VA was measured in logMAR, with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR is equivalent to 20/40 Snellen visual acuity. VA was compared to the historical SPE of 92.5% (EN ISO 11979-7:2014).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of First Implanted Eyes Achieving BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR or Better at 2 Years Post-Implantation

    Time frame: Year 2 post-implantation from second eye surgery

    VA was tested for the first implanted eye using the correction obtained from the manifest refraction and 100% contrast electronic ETDRS charts at a distance of 4 m from the eye. VA was measured in logMAR, with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR is equivalent to 20/40 Snellen visual acuity. No hypothesis testing was prespecified for this endpoint.

  2. Percentage of Second Implanted Eyes Achieving BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR or Better at 2 Years Post-Implantation

    Time frame: Year 2 post-implantation from second eye surgery

    VA was tested for the second implanted eye using the correction obtained from the manifest refraction and 100% contrast electronic ETDRS charts at a distance of 4 m from the eye. VA was measured in logMAR, with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR is equivalent to 20/40 Snellen visual acuity. No hypothesis testing was prespecified for this endpoint.

  3. Percentage of First Implanted Eyes Achieving BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR or Better at 3 Years Post-Implantation

    Time frame: Year 3 post-implantation from second eye surgery

    VA was tested for the first implanted eye using the correction obtained from the manifest refraction and 100% contrast electronic ETDRS charts at a distance of 4 m from the eye. VA was measured in logMAR, with 0.02 logMAR increment corresponding to a single letter on an ETDRS chart. A BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR is equivalent to 20/40 Snellen visual acuity.
