Filter by:Combined cataract + trabectome surgery is a surgery designed to help lower the intraocular pressure (pressure in the eye) and hopefully reduce the need for topical drops, progression of glaucoma, and/or further glaucoma surgeries. The purpose of this study is to assess whether using pilocarpine, a medication which is FDA approved to induce miosis, (in other words cause the pupil to constrict or become smaller) provides additional benefit to the success of Trabectome and cataract surgery.
Study to assess safety and performance of MINIject SO627 in patients with open angle glaucoma.
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide that is a chronic public health problem. Unfortunately, glaucoma can be diagnosed when the disease reaches a certain level in today's conditions. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic methods that can diagnose glaucoma before it reaches the advanced level and to identify pathophysiological processes. In this study, choroidal thickness was investigated in primary open-angle glaucoma cases and its correlations with OCT and multifocal ERG parameters were evaluated.
The objectives of this study are: - To evaluate the efficacy of Phentolamine Mesylate to lower intra-ocular pressure (IOP) in the treatment of Open-Angle Glaucoma (OAG) and Ocular Hypertension (OHT). - To evaluate the ocular and systemic safety of Phentolamine Mesylate compared to its vehicle. - To evaluate additional efficacy of Phentolamine Mesylate to improve visual performance.
The purpose of this study is to look at the relationship of small blood vessels irregularities observed with an imaging system called video nailfold capillaroscopy in people with primary open-angle glaucoma. Nailfold capillaroscopy (NFC) is a video camera with a magnifying lens used for studying the movement of blood in small blood vessels. It is simple, safe and does not penetrate the skin. The skin fold that is at the tip of the finger is called the "nailfold". NFC has been used to assess blood vessel narrowing in patients with glaucoma.
The standard surgical treatment for glaucoma is trabeculectomy. The PRESERFLO™ (formerly InnFocus) Microshunt (IMS) is a new, minimally invasive drainage device which has been suggested to result in similar IOP lowering, but with faster visual recovery and less complications and postoperative interventions. The objective of this study is to aid in deciding on the use of the IMS in glaucoma surgery by assessing its efficacy and cost-effectiveness in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) compared to the standard trabeculectomy (TE).
The purpose of this research study is to compare the effect of Latanoprostene Bunod and Timolol on eye pressure and blood vessels of the back of the eye.
To evaluate the efficacy of once daily dosing with SPARC's novel ophthalmic formulation of bimatoprost compared with Lumigan 0.01% in subjects with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
This is a prospective, single-center, interventional, randomized controlled study comparing Decorin as antifibrotic agent in sub scleral trabeculectomy versus Mitomycin.
It has been shown that reactions of human retinal photoreceptors to a light stimulus can be measured with custom-made, research prototype optical coherence tomography (OCT) systems. This can be used as a biomarker for the function of the photoreceptors. Due to the high technical demands on the system, however, the technique is currently not available for clinical purposes. In this pilot study a protocol to measure changes in retinal photoreceptor layer thickness before and after light stimulation shall be developed based on a commercial OCT system and newly developed algorithms. Other variables, such as circadian processes shall be investigated as well. After measurements in healthy volunteers, the protocol is planned to be applied in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) to test for feasibility of the method in these patient groups.
