Filter by:A study to determine whether a patient's range of vision test results improve after their eye pressure is lowered by 30% or more by testing on a new machine called the Accumap and how to learn how much the Accumap's results change from one test to another within the same person. The investigators believe that Multifocal VEP readings (Accumap)(and therefore visual function and ganglion cell function) improve after acutely lowering intraocular pressure.
The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a difference in the ocular signs and symptoms of subjects' eyes using Xalatan® 0.005% versus Travatan Z® 0.004% based on the outcome of subject assessment and clinical assessment in patients with Ocular Hypertension or Glaucoma with mild to moderate dry eye at baseline in accordance with the Oxford Grading Scale.
To determine whether one glaucoma eye drop is less likely to cause changes to the surface of the eye (conjunctiva) than another. The two different prostaglandins are Xalatan and Travatan Z.
Hypothesis: Studies suggest that patients with low diastolic velocity and high resistivity index in the ophthalmic artery had more progressive visual fields, the investigators hypothesize therefore that addition of Cosopt to Latanoprost could improve ocular diastolic perfusion pressure (ODPP). Objective: To evaluate the effects of Cosopt on ODPP in patients not adequately controlled with latanoprost alone.
Study participants who receive the I-SIGHT intervention will have higher rates of glaucoma treatment compliance (e.g., medication-taking and refill compliance, return for clinical follow-up) and more positive eye health outcomes at 12-month follow-up than participants who receive the control group intervention.
The purpose of this clinical protocol is to perform a comparison of Retinal and Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) thickness measurements between the Topcon 3D-1000 and the identified predicate device. In addition, this protocol performs a comparison of the thickness measurement results from images collected and analyzed with the Zeiss Stratus OCT to images collected with the Zeiss Stratus OCT and imported into the Topcon 3D OCT-1000 StratusViewer for analysis.
Taxiarchis, a small village in Northern Greece with 1060 inhabitants, was considered to have a surprisingly high incidence of glaucoma. This isolated population located on Mount Holomondas appeared to be enriched for familial glaucoma. Based upon the high reported incidence of glaucoma in Taxiarchis and previous findings of the Thr377Met myocilin mutation in the Greek population,the investigators undertook a community-based study to determine if this variant was present in this village.
The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of total volume and total dose on the safety and intraocular pressure-lowering efficacy of Anecortave Acetate Suspension (3 mg and 48 mg) in 0.5 mL and 0.8 mL volumes when administered by anterior juxtascleral depot (AJD) for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
Measurement of RNFL thickness by OCT is at a cornerstone for the correct diagnosis and monitoring of progression of glaucomatous optic neuropathy. Spectral domain technology has enabled better reproducibility with better axial resolution in the measurement of RNFL thickness. A comparative study among Stratus, Cirrus and RT-View will enable clinicians to determine differences among various instruments.
RT-View utilizes spectral domain technology to assess both RNFL and ganglion cell layer thickness. This study aims to correlate visual field defects in patients with glaucoma to both RNFL and ganglion cell layer thickness.
