NCT ID NCT07294716

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a custom-made lens implanted during cataract surgery can better correct vision in people with irregularly shaped corneas. Fifteen adults with significant astigmatism will receive the special lens. The goal is to reduce total astigmatism and improve visual outcomes beyond what standard lenses offer.

Active substance

customized toric intraocular lens (AMILens Individual)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a new option for cataract patients with irregular corneas to achieve clearer vision without needing contact lenses after surgery.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early exploratory study with only 15 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Custom lenses may not fully correct irregular astigmatism, and risks of cataract surgery still apply.
