Filter by:This study will evaluate the efficacy of Restasis® in participants with dry eye disease who engage in electronic visual tasking.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new eye drop formulation in patients with dry eye disease.
Benzalkonium chloride (BAC) is a preservative, which is a component of more than 70% of topical ophthalmic drugs. Although BAC is a preservative with an excellent antibacterial spectrum, it has also been shown to induce toxic effects to the ocular surface. Several studies have indicated that BAC may also have altering effects on the bacterial flora of the conjunctiva. Since dry eye syndrome (DES) is a very common and multifactorial disease of the ocular surface and the tear fluid resulting in tear film instability, inflammation of the ocular surface, symptoms of discomfort and visual impairment, there are many different preserved as well as preservative-free ophthalmic preparations of ocular lubricants for the treatment of DES. Unpublished data from our department shows differences between artificial tears for the treatment of DES with and without BAC in bacterial culture. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of artificial tear eyedrops with and without BAC on the conjunctival bacterial flora. For this 40 patients with mild or moderate dry eye syndrome with no use of artificial tears in the 4 weeks preceding the study will be recruited and treated either with the preservative-free "Prosicca sine" eyedrops or the BAC containing "Prosicca" eyedrops for one month. Conjunctival samples will be collected of one eye of each patient before and after the 1-month treatment period to compare the conjunctival bacterial flora of the two treatment groups.
In this study, the safety and effectiveness of the Oculeve Intranasal Lacrimal Neurostimulator after 180 days of use in participants with aqueous tear deficiency will be evaluated.
A retrospective analysis of Restasis® benefits in dry eye contact lens patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Systane® Balance following 90 days of QID (4 times/day) dosing among Indian subjects with dry eye.
Dry eye is a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that results in symptoms of discomfort, visual disturbance, and tear film instability with potential damage to the ocular surface. It is accompanied by increased osmolarity of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface. Lubricin is a mucin-like glycoprotein originally discovered in synovial fluid, as a secreted product of cells that line the joint tissues, which is present at the surface of articular cartilage and it has been investigated on its roles at the ocular surface, in normal and pathologic conditions such as dry eye. The objective of the study is to assess the tolerability, safety and efficacy of Lubricin eye drops solution administered over 4 weeks versus sodium hyaluronate (Na-HY) eye drops solution in subjects with moderate dry eye.
