Participant Flow

This study was conducted at one clinical site in Europe. First participant was enrolled on 8/25/2009 and last participant exited the study on 4/27/2010. Study lasted six months for enrollment and three months for follow-up.

36 participants at least 50 years of age were enrolled in bilateral cataract surgery with phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation for the correction of aphakia. The Stellaris Vision Enhancement System was used for a 1.8mm Coaxial Micro-Incision procedure in one eye and a 2.75mm coaxial standard procedure in the contralateral eye.

Measure
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery with phacoemulsification. Eligible patients were randomized to undergo cataract surgery using the 1.8 mm coaxial micro incision technique in either the right eye or the left eye. The fellow eye was assigned to undergo cataract surgery using the 2.75 mm standard incision. The Stellaris Vision Enhancement System was used for the surgery.
