Eye lens rotation study aims to sharpen cataract surgery outcomes
NCT ID NCT07453992
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tracks 400 adults with cataracts to see how three different toric intraocular lenses rotate after surgery. Rotation is measured at several follow-up visits over three months. The goal is to find which lens stays most stable and help doctors choose the best option for each patient.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- toric intraocular lenses (TECNIS Toric II, AcrySof IQ Toric, AT TORBI 709M)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help surgeons choose the best lens for each patient to reduce rotation and improve vision after cataract surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to immediate changes in practice, and results may not apply to all patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged 18 years or older with age-related cataract scheduled for phacoemulsification cataract surgery. * Presence of regular corneal astigmatism requiring toric intraocular lens implantation. * Eligible for implantation of one of the three study toric intraocular lenses based on preoperative evaluation. * Ability to understand the study procedures and provide written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * History of prior ocular surgery in the study eye. * History of ocular trauma in the study eye. * Irregular corneal astigmatism or corneal pathology affecting reliable biometric measurement. * Intraoperative complications, including anterior capsular tear or posterior capsular rupture. * Inadequate pupillary dilation during surgery or postoperative examinations. * Evidence of zonular weakness, zonular dialysis, or lens subluxation. * Active ocular infection or inflammation. * Any other ocular or systemic condition judged by the investigator to potentially affect intraocular lens stability or study outcomes.
