EyeKon Medical Inc. Capsular Tension Ring Study

This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of a capsular tension ring (CTR) when used during cataract surgery. Capsular Tension Rings are used during intraocular lens implantation to give added support in order to keep the intraocular lens well centered, especially in eyes with weak or partially absent zonules. In many cases, capsular tension rings allow a lens to be successfully implanted into an eye which otherwise could not have supported an intraocular lens.
