Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine the safety, efficacy and predictability of visual outcome up to 15 years post-surgery, after an Artisan pIOL implantation for the correction of high degree myopia. - Safety defined as >= 2 lines loss of the best spectacle corrected visual acuity in percentage compared to pre-surgery. - Efficacy defined as the percentage of eyes with an uncorrected visual acuity >= 20/20. - Predictability defined the manifest refractive spherical equivalent within +/- 1.0 diopters of the intended correction. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - Determine complications of an Artisan pIOL, in particular endothelial cell loss - Determine the stability of an Artisan pIOL for the correction of high degree myopia by comparing short term data with long term data - Observe long term complications associated with high degree myopia - Determine the patients* satisfaction up to 15 years post-surgery after implantation of an Artisan pIOL | — |
