Filter by:Research indicates that many people who are being treated for glaucoma have dry eyes. The purpose of this study is to test the use of artificial tears to alleviate dryness signs and symptoms in people who are using medication to treat glaucoma. The study hypothesis is that the use of artificial tears will result in an improvement in clinical signs and symptoms associated with dry eyes.
Evaluating the percentage of patients that suffer from eye allergies and determining whether they also have dry eyes.
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, tolerability and safety of RX-10045 Ophthalmic Solution in patients with Dry Eye Disease.
This study is to determine the efficacy and safety of 3% or 5% DA-6034 eye drops compared with placebo in dry eye syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to verify whether OPC-12759 ophthalmic solution is effective compared with placebo in dry eye patients. OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension will be used as a reference drug.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of the ophthalmic solution PRO-148 in the ocular surface of patients with mild to moderate dry eye compared with ophthalmic solution Systane®
To assess the comfort preference of ISTA Tears vs Systane in patients with dry eye disease (DED)
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety of lifitegrast ophthalmic solution compared to placebo in the treatment of dry eye as assessed by ocular and non-ocular adverse events when administered BID for approximately 1 year.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rebamipide ophthalmic suspension in subjects with dry eye syndrome.
Background: Osmolarity is defined as the concentration of particles dissolved in a solution. Normal tears contain various dissolved particles including proteins, salts and other electrolytes. The investigators plan to investigate how osmolarity of the tear film changes over time after instillation of artificial tears containing hyaluronate. This is one kind of artificial tear that is used to treat dry eye. Dry eye and tear osmolarity: Dry eye is a significant health problem, but diagnosis and treatment are often ambiguous and ineffective. There has been a resurgence of interest and research in dry eye in the past 5 years, and tear osmolarity has emerged as perhaps, one of the most effective ways to evaluate tear quality and dry eye status. Dry eye is usually treated with artificial tears, and many formulations are available. The investigators will test an isotonic solution that contains hyaluronate. Hyaluronate binds water and should help to maintain water on the eye. Objective: We plan to study the time course of possible changes in tear film osmolarity following instillation of an isotonic artificial tear containing hyaluronate. The investigators will use the TearLab, a new clinical instrument that has been developed to quickly and easily measure tear film osmolarity. Understanding how artificial tears affect tear film osmolarity over time can help doctors determine efficacy and dosing schedules. The investigators will test the isotonic hyaluronate (Blink Contacts) artificial tears relative to normal saline solution. Hypothesis: The investigators should be able to measure a decrease in tear osmolarity over time following instillation due to the water-binding effect of hyaluronate artificial tears relative to a control (normal saline solution).
