Filter by:The significance of our study is in the importance of understanding the quality and quantity of proteins in the human tear film from diseased and non-diseased patients. This pilot study will provide data to plan prospective research to better delineate the utility of tear proteins in diagnosing and following disease status in a non-invasive fashion.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether radioactive iodine, as compared to anti-thyroid medications, is a risk factor for the development or progression of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy in patients with hyperthyroidism due to Graves' disease. The other aim of this study is to determine the incidence of the various ophthalmopathy subtypes and the utility of orbital antibodies in the diagnosis, classification and monitoring of patients with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy.
This study is designed to treat patients with Graves' disease with Rituximab in an attempt to prevent or reverse the physically deforming and debilitating consequences of this disease.
The study analysis the influence of benzalkonium chloride on the density of antigen presenting Langerhans cells. This is achieved in a double blind randomized study using in-vivo confocal microscopy to identify and quantify Langerhans cells of the human cornea in its central and peripheral part. This study design is based on observations with raised Langerhans cell density after the application of benzalkonium chloride containing eye drops in glaucoma patients.
To evaluate the impact of Lotemax on the initiation of Restasis therapy in patients with dry eye. It is hypothesized that the anti-inflammatory activity of Lotemax may help mitigate the stinging with cyclosporine administration and the dry eye signs and symptoms experienced during the initiation of therapy.
The purpose of this trial is to compare the effectiveness and safety of INS365 Ophthalmic Solution with placebo when applied topically in subjects with dry eye disease.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the effectiveness and safety of 2% diquafosol tetrasodium ophthalmic solution versus placebo following 6 weeks of treatment in subjects with mild to moderate dry eye disease.
The purpose of this trial is to compare the effectiveness and safety of INS365 Ophthalmic Solution with Placebo when applied topically in subjects with dry eye disease.
The purpose of this study is to investigate how the addition of a new artificial tear product when applied to the tear layer affects contrast sensitivity and optical aberrations over time. We will also determine if there are any adverse effects associated with drop instillation.
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the sentinel lymph node (SLN) (s) and biopsy it (them) to see if the patient has small or low volume metastatic disease that would otherwise have been missed.
