-
Agreement of Two OCT Biometers: A Pilot Study
This pilot study tests whether two OCT biometers, UNITY Dx and Anterion, produce comparable eye measurements for adults across several eye-conditions to help guide IOL power decisions.
-
Unity DX Cornea Study
This study tests a new biometer to see how well it measures corneal and epithelial thickness compared with existing devices in adults with normal, abnormal, or post-surgery eyes.
-
Comparison of a new trifocal IOL with PanOptix Pro IOL in cataract surgery
This study tests whether the investigational trifocal IOL LPYWT0 works as well as the PanOptix Pro trifocal IOL in people with cataracts undergoing cataract surgery in both eyes.
-
Eye drop to reduce redness in adults with irritated eyes
This trial tests if an eye drop containing apraclonidine 0.125% can quickly reduce redness in adults with minor eye irritation compared with a placebo.
-
Eye drop for redness in adults: relief with a new ophthalmic solution
This study tests whether a new eye drop can reduce redness in adults with minor eye irritation or irritation-related redness.
-
Clareon TruPlus IOLs in Bilateral Cataract Surgery
This study tests Clareon TruPlus Monofocal IOLs to see how safe they are and how well they perform for people with both eyes affected by cataracts.
-
Comparing surgery times for UNITY® VCS and CONSTELLATION® Vision System
This study will see if the UNITY® VCS or the CONSTELLATION® Vision System leads to shorter combined cataract and vitrectomy (phacovitrectomy) surgery times for adults planned for 25‑gauge procedures.
-
Capella Scientia: developing Unity DX to measure eyes with cataract.
This project will test whether the Unity DX device can reliably collect eye measurements (biometry and aberrometry) in adults with cataracts.
-
Evaluation of Hydrus Microstent after cataract surgery for glaucoma
This study is testing how well the Hydrus Microstent works for people with glaucoma after they have cataract surgery to see if it stays in place and improves their eye health over two years.
