Filter by:This study examines efficacy and tolerability of 3 different Latanoprost 0.005% eyedrops preparations, commercially available in Italy, in subjects affected by primary open angle glaucoma.
This is an observational study in patients with POAG or OHT that will collect data on the use of Lumigan® 0.01% (bimatoprost 0.01% ophthalmic solution) in a routine clinical setting. Patients will be seen at baseline and at a follow-up visit approximately 8-12 weeks after baseline, as per normal clinical practice.
To assess the safety and performance of the MIDI Arrow in patients suffering from glaucoma that is inadequately controlled on maximum tolerated medical therapy with intraocular pressure ≥ 18 mm Hg and ≤ 40 mm Hg
Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is associated with inadequate drainage of the aqueous humor via the trabecular meshwork towards the systemic circulation. This may lead to an increase in IOP and may damage the optic nerve. The purpose of glaucoma management is to lower IOP in order to prevent progression of the optic neuropathy and subsequent visual loss. Firstline treatment usually includes IOP-lowering drug therapy. However, if IOP remains uncontrolled and/or the optic nerve damage progresses despite controlled IOP, surgery may be indicated. Deep sclerectomy with a collagen implant (DSCI) is a non-penetrating surgical procedure for the treatment of open angle glaucoma that allows the enhancement of the aqueous outflow. This forms the rationale to conduct this prospective, open label study to assess the 24-hour IOP fluctuation profile recorded with Triggerfish® in patients with POAG before and after DSCI.
Sleep apnea is characterized by repetitive episodes of decreased or interrupted airflow in the upper airways during sleep. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is the most common sleep-related breathing disorder and is characterized by repeated partial or complete upper airway collapse, gasping episodes, daytime sleepiness and fatigue. Once suspected, the diagnosis is made on the basis of anamnesis and a polysomnography (PSG) using the so-called respiratory disturbance index (RDI) to grade OSAS. Standard therapy consists of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) during sleep to prevent upper airway collapse. The association between OSAS and glaucoma has been extensively studied, although a few reports have been non-confirmatory. OSAS has been associated with reduced ocular blood flow, leading to hypoxia and hypercapnia, and as such, may represent a risk factor for glaucomatous optic neuropathy. OSAS has also been related to loss of nycthemeral rhythm of intraocular pressure (IOP). In addition, CPAP has been reported to increase IOP when used during nighttime. The purpose of this study is to investigate how IOP varies in time, particularly during sleep in OSAS patients with or without glaucoma, and if the IOP variations are associated with the use of CPAP. IOP fluctuations will be monitored with SENSIMED Triggerfish®, a portable investigational device using a contact lens sensor that monitors the IOP fluctuation continuously over 24-hours.
This non-inferiority study will assess safety and efficacy of LUMIGAN® RC (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.01%) versus DuoTrav® (travoprost 0.004%/timolol 0.5% combination ophthalmic solution) in patients previously on Travatan® Z (travoprost ophthalmic solution 0.004%) monotherapy.
This study will evaluate assessments from the Goniometric Lens compared with those from anterior segment imaging in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) and/or ocular hypertension (OHT).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate prospectively the PNT safety and efficacy in term of IOP reduction in a group of previously or newly diagnosed glaucomatous subjects.
This clinical trial is a prospective, randomized, controlled, multicenter, study. After informed consent is obtained, patients will be evaluated for eligibility based on glaucoma severity, eye health, and visual acuity. Following successful screening, use of all topical glaucoma medications will be stopped for a period of "washout" to establish a qualifying medication-free intraocular pressure (IOP) value. Clinical follow up will be scheduled over the course of the 24 month study, and examinations will be repeated to monitor eye health. At the 1 and 2 year follow up, those patients on ocular hypotensive medications will be instructed to washout, and then have the diurnal (IOP taken in the morning, mid-day, and afternoon in the same day) IOP evaluation. Annual follow up will occur up to 5 years. The primary effectiveness endpoint is a decrease in diurnal IOP from baseline compared to the 24 months diurnal IOP following medication washout.
In this double-masked, vehicle-controlled, dose-response study, subjects will be randomized to receive AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution 0.01%, 0.02%, and 0.04% or its vehicle (one eye), once daily (QD)in the morning (AM) for 7 days. The first dose and last dose will be administered in the clinic. Ocular safety and ocular hypotensive efficacy will be evaluated in the clinic throughout the study.
