Filter by:The primary goal of the trial is to show that optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology can be used to effectively screen for diseases of the eye including glaucoma, macular diseases and keratoconus. Glaucoma is a disease that causes permanent vision loss and is usually accompanied by increased eye pressure. Macular diseases affect sharp, central vision. Keratoconus is a disease that affects the cornea (clear surface covering the colored part of the eye).
This clinical trial is designed to investigate the efficacy profile of the SENSIMED Triggerfish® during 24-hour IOP monitoring in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension, done three times at monthly intervals under different therapeutic regimen. This trial will also evaluate the efficacy of SENSIMED Triggerfish® to detect changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) after the water drinking test (WDT) will be investigated.
The purpose of this study is to examine if a chronic dehydration is a risk factor for the developement or progression of some forms of glaucoma.
The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of T2345 versus an active comparator.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study will evaluate the safety and the effect of RO5093151 on intraocular pressure in patients with ocular hypertension or open angle glaucoma. Patients will be randomized to receive oral doses of RO5093151 or placebo twice daily. The anticipated time on study treatment is 7 days with the possibility to extend to 28 days.
Continuous intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement with a contact lens sensor may provide more information on the drug-related IOP change than 24-hour IOP measurement with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT.
This study will assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability and persistence of use of Lumigan ® 0.01% in patients diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who are treated per routine clinical practice.
The purpose of the study is to prove if there is any difference in the nerve fiber layer between patients with normal- and high-tension-glaucoma with similar structural optic nerve head parameters.
Color Doppler Imaging (CDI) has been providing information about ocular blood flow over the past decades. This non-invasive procedure based on ultrasound technique has identified increased resistance and decreased systolic blood velocities to exist in the ophthalmic arteries of glaucoma patients. However, existing data has provided very little information regarding the analysis of the Doppler waveform in itself and to whether variables such as early systolic acceleration or systolic/diastolic velocity ratios are of any significance in glaucoma disease. In other medical specialties using CDI technology, such as nephrology or cardiology for instance, this analysis has been part of the normal routine. This information has been used in screening patients for disturbed circulation such as arterial stenosis or providing information regarding prognosis of renal and hepatic transplants have been used for decades now. What is the normal characteristics of the waveform Doppler analysis? To answer this, the investigators will create a normative database using healthy controls. Are there signs of altered stiffness or compliance in the ophthalmic arteries of glaucoma patients? To answer this, the analysis of early acceleration acceleration and detection of an early peak systolic will be done on the Doppler curves of glaucoma patients and compared to the healthy normative database. Are there any difference between the two types of glaucoma [primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and normal-tension glaucoma (NTG)]? The investigators will compare the variables of the ophthalmic artery waveform in these two groups. Do any of these Doppler waveform variables have any clinical significance? To answer this, the investigators will search for the existence of any correlation between the waveform data and both functional (visual field testing) and structural (Confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy - CSLO) variables of the glaucoma groups.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of switching to Azarga from prior pharmacotherapy in patients with open-angle glaucoma.
