Filter by:This is prospective, non-randomized, single-arm study to assess the safety and effectiveness of lowering intraocular pressure with the Beacon Aqueous Microshunt. A total of 65 subjects will be enrolled at five centers. The primary endpoint will be assessed at 12 month follow-up.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering effect of two iStent inject devices in combination with cataract surgery in patients with mild-to-moderate open-angle glaucoma.
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the MINIject glaucoma implant and Intraocular Pressure (IOP) lowering effects with or without glaucoma medications. The procedure will be a stand-alone surgery. Overall, the patient will be asked to perform several examinations up to 24 months after surgery.
The ideal dosing for preservative-free tafluprost/timolol fixed combination remains to be elucidated. The present study compared the 24-hour intraocular pressure efficacy obtained with tafluprost/timolol given once in the evening with placebo once in the morning, versus that with the same fixed combination administered once in the morning with placebo given once in the evening in consecutive patients with open-angle glaucoma insufficiently controlled with branded, or generic latanoprost monotherapy.
This is a randomized, parallel arm, multicenter, double-blind trial. Patients with POAG will be randomized 1:1 ratio to receive: - Prostaglandin analogue (PGA) monotherapy + CoQun® (Arm A) - Prostaglandin analogue (PGA) monotherapy + Vehicle (Arm B)
A single centre, open label, study to assess the safety, tolerability and biodegradation of PA5108 ocular implant in adults who have Open Angle Glaucoma (Primary or Secondary).
The biocompatible silicone tube miniature drainage device is a small, non-valved implant to shunt aqueous humor underneath the conjunctiva to control the intraocular pressure. Efficacy and safety were evaluated with a minimum follow-up of 12 months.
To the best of Investigator knowledge, no studies to this date have compared the safety and efficacyof ologen® Collagen Matrix to MMC in exaggerated healing response among JOAG patients. Given that,filtration surgery is usually less successful in patients with juvenile glaucoma; the purpose of this study is to compare these two adjuvant therapies in exaggerated healing response among JOAG patients. Investigator hypothesis is that trabeculectomy with ologen® Collagen Matrix would be as effective as MMC in IOP control, with prominent bleb morphology as compared to MMC bleb.
A target for glaucoma treatment is the intra-ocular pressure (IOP) which is lowered with medications, laser, or surgical intervention. The efficacy of different medication classes is well understood as their IOP lowering effects have been well documented. However, beyond the basic biochemical and pharmacokinetic actions, long-term effects of these drugs on IOP have not been adequately studied. Specifically, does long-term use of anti-glaucoma medications have lasting effects on IOP even with subsequent discontinuation of the medication? In Ontario, prostaglandin analogues are the most frequently prescribed first line anti-glaucoma medication. In our study, we examine the lingering IOP-reducing effects of the prostaglandin analogue anti-glaucoma drug class. Our overall objective is to determine if patients previously treated with prostaglandin analogues remain within acceptable treatment ranges 6 weeks after medication discontinuation, and if this IOP differs from pre-treatment baseline values. Half of participants will discontinue their prostaglandin analogue (PGA) treatment for 6 weeks, while the other half will continue their PGA therapy as prescribed by their ophthalmologist. Both groups will be followed closely throughout the 6 weeks to monitor changes in IOP. This can help us understand the lasting effects of medication use and can help better guide clinical care in optimizing glaucoma management, and help direct study designs of future research that involve any therapy secondary to prostaglandin analogue treatment.
The study is a prospective randomised controlled intervention comparing the intraocular pressure outcomes following Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) treatment of 180 degrees SLT compared to 360 degrees in treatment naive patients with bilateral ocular hypertension or primary open angle glaucoma . The right eye of each patient will be randomised to receive either 180 or 360 degrees SLT, while the fellow eye will receive the opposite treatment. That is, if the right eye is randomised to 180 degrees SLT, then the left eye will receive 360 degrees SLT. The primary objective is to assess the mean difference in intraocular pressure between two eyes of each participant. The mean difference in IOP will be assessed at two weeks and at one, three and six months after treatment with SLT. Secondary outcomes include assessing whether there are differences in visual acuity, anterior chamber inflammation, visual field progression and the rate of complications between the two eyes treated with either 180° or 360° of selective laser trabeculoplasty. The complications assessed are those published in the literature including: pain, blurred vision, anterior chamber inflammation, IOP spike, and hyphaema. Additionally, participants will be given the opportunity to report symptoms experienced through free text.
