Filter by:To assess the efficacy and safety of the administration of aflibercept by intravitreal injection in comparison to sham to control intraocular pressure in patients with neovascular glaucoma.
To evaluate the effects of intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) as adjunctive treatment for trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (TMC) in neovascular glaucoma (NVG).
The pupose of this study is to evaluate the safety and the efficacy of ranibizumab in rare VEGF driven ocular diseases.
This 52 week study will assess the use of intravitreal aflibercept injections in patients with neovascular glaucoma (NVG) compared to standard of care panretinal photocoagulation. The investigators hypothesize that the neovascularization of the iris and angle present in neovascular glaucoma will resolve more quickly in eye treated with intravitreal aflibercept injection alone and result in increased comfort and preservation of visual field as compared to current standard of care utilizing pan-retinal photocoagulation. The advantages to intravitreal aflibercept injection use could include resolution of NVI/NVA (neovascularization of the iris/neovascularization of the angle) leading to quicker pain relief and quicker lowering of IOP (intraocular pressure).
Proliferative ischemic retinopathies lead to a formation of abnormal vessels on the iris surface induced by an increased level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In progressive stages fibrovascular membranes occlude the anterior chamber angle which inhibits aqueous outflow resulting in neovascular glaucoma. The increased intraocular pressure is often difficult to control and frequently results in loss of vision. The aim of this study is to analyze the short- and long-term outcome after adjuvant intraocular Ranibizumab application in patients with neovascular glaucoma and rubeosis and to analyze the role of ranibizumab within a holistic treatment regime.
Assess the efficacy of Avastin as an adjunct to Diode Laser cyclophotocoagulation in the treatment of Neovascular Glaucoma.
To compare the safety and effectiveness between ologen collagen matrix and mitomycin-C (MMC) in glaucoma surgery. The ologen collagen matrix implantation procedure is same as traditional trabeculectomy except implant the ologen collagen matrix on the top of sclera flap after one loose stich the sclera flap. The MMC application is as the standard.
Several studies have confirmed high levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in eyes with neovascular glaucoma (NVG). The role of VEGF inhibitors in regression of other neovascular disorders such as wet-type age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema has been described. We aim to evaluate the effect of three intravitreal injections of bevacizumab (Avastin) 2.5 mg versus a sham procedure for treatment of NVG. Outcome measures include intraocular pressure and extent of iris neovascularization. Both study arms will receive conventional treatment for NVG.
