Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering effect of two iStent devices in eyes of subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the iStent medical device that is implanted into the eye and designed to reduce eye pressure in patients with your condition.
The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) on ocular rigidity in glaucoma patients.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of bimatoprost/timolol fixed combination (GANfort®) versus latanoprost (Xalatan®) in patients with open-angle glaucoma who have never been previously treated and are at high risk for progression.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Triple Combination Therapy compared with Fixed Combination brimonidine tartrate/timolol ophthalmic solution in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
The aim of this study is to assess the effect of preoperatively administered intra venous magnesium sulfate in attenuating pressure response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation in adult patients scheduled for elective non ocular surgery
The purpose of this study to assess the safety and efficacy of changing to DuoTrav® from prior bimatoprost 0.03%/timolol 0.5% (used concomitantly or in a fixed combination) pharmacotherapy in uncontrolled patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
The purpose of this study is to test if latanoprost punctal plugs will reduce eye pressure in subjects with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of brimonidine tartrate/timolol fixed combination (Combigan®) compared with brimonidine tartrate (Alphagan®) and timolol in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension who do not respond well to topical beta blockers.
Vascular epithelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a critical role in vessel growth and wound healing. Bevacizumab, a non specific VEGF inhibitor, has been successfully used for the treatment of eye diseases associated with neovascularization. The purpose of this randomized study is 1) to investigate the effects of intraoperative subtenon injection of bevacizumab on the outcomes of trabeculectomy surgery. 2) to measure plasma and aqueous levels of VEGF and assess its association with the outcomes of trabeculectomy surgery. Trabeculectomy surgery, where a small drainage canal is created at the front of the eye, is the most common glaucoma surgery performed worldwide. The goal of the surgery is to control intraocular pressure. Failure of this procedure is most commonly caused by excessive scarring of the surgical site. If scarring occurs, the drainage canal can close. By adding Bevacizumab at the time of surgery, wound healing may be slowed and surgical failure prevented. The results of this study will be helpful in the future development of new more effective and safe surgical techniques for treatment of glaucoma. Patients who have given informed consent are randomized into two groups. One group receives standard of care for trabeculectomy surgery and the other group receives standard of care plus an injection of Bevacizumab at the surgery site. Both groups have a one time collection of ocular fluid and a blood sample taken from a vein in the arm. After surgery, patients are seen by their study doctor six times in the following year. At these visits measurements are taken of their visual acuity, eye pressure and blood pressure. The doctor does a clinical exam and at months six and twelve photographs of the patients' eye are taken.
