View clinical trials related to Dry Eye Syndromes.
Filter by:Dry eye is a chronic condition that decreases function and affect visual function with severe discapacity until now treatments are based in artificial eye drops. Platelet rich plasma has emerged as a strategy for cellular restoration, the purpose of this study is to evaluate their effects in lacrimal production and safety of this intervention in patients with severe dry eye.
This is a Phase 2/3 study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 different dose concentrations of OTX-101 dosed twice a day in both eyes for 84 days compared to placebo (vehicle) in patients with keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye disease).
This study will evaluate the prevalence of dry eye disease in patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. No treatment is administered in this study.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of P-321 Ophthalmic Solution in subjects with mild to moderate dry eye disease.
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of XG-104 Ophthalmic Solution compared to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye after a 4 week Three Times a Day (TID) treatment period
The purpose of this clinical Study is Tisporin Eye Drops 0.05%(Cyclosporine ophthalmic solution) group and Restasis Eye Drops 0.05%(Cyclosporine ophthalmic suspension) group 12 weeks after treatment, each treatment group comparisons for evaluation of efficacy and safety in Moderate to Severe Dry Eye Disease. - Corneal staining test, Ocular surface disease index (OSDI), Tear break up time (TBUT), Non-anesthetic Schirmer test
Dry eye is a major, common medical condition with significant health and economic burden in Singapore and worldwide. It is a holistic problem affected by living habits, nutrition and underlying systemic disease, inducing a significant decrease in quality-of-life. The hallmark of this disease is raised tear osmolarity and inflammation. There is no definitive cure for this condition, as treatment in the form of lubricants is only symptomatic and treatment with cyclosporine eyedrops is expensive and may not be well tolerated. Following the rise in international interest in complementary medicine, randomized-controlled studies in dry eye using Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have been published, with mixed results. However, the major limitation of these studies is the lack of objective assessment for inflammation. We propose to collaborate with an academically-trained Singapore TCM physician who has conducted dry eye trials, and synergistically exploit the existing state-of-the-art dry eye monitoring technologies available at Singapore Eye Research Institute (SERI). This proposal is cost-effective, building on previous government grants and expertise to provide definitive scientific evidence on the efficacy and safety of TCM in dry eye. SERI has an international reputation for interventional studies, and the PI has a good academic relationship with the above TCM physician. We propose to screen, recruit and treat 150 patients with a herbal preparation and acupuncture, and evaluate over 4 weeks in a randomized-controlled study. Tests to be performed will include tear imaging and osmolarity, as well as protein and cytokine assays. Singapore is uniquely positioned at the crossroads of the East and the West to take the lead in this field. Given that there is an increasing patient interest in holistic care in Singapore and the rise of scientifically trained TCM practitioners, a study like this one is very timely, and will have tremendous impact to healthcare delivery in Singapore.
Many patients refer to an oculoplastic or corneal clinic examination due to dry eye symptoms. epidemiologic studies estimate that as many as 15% of the population over 60 years suffer from dry eye. the disease can be treated both topically through several drugs or through mechanical closure of the lacrimal drainage system. in the past decade a few studies demonstrated the efficacy of anti inflammatory treatment on dry eye disease due to the inflammatory process that occurs in it. this treatment rises goblet cell counts but in the meantime elevates the intra ocular pressure and elevates the risk for infections. steroids that cause a lower increase in intraocular pressure have not been thoroughly evaluated in dry eye disease. we with to subjectively and objectively evaluate an FDA approved topical steroidal drug in the treatment of dry eye.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the severity of dry eye syndrome following excimer laser vision correction using no-touch all-laser photorefractive keratectomy in comparison to conventional lasik
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of SI-614 solution compared with placebo solution in treating patients with dry eye.
