Filter by:Examine the safety, tolerability and efficacy of travoprost benzalkonium chloride (BAK) free ophthalmic solution compared to either latanoprost or bimatoprost monotherapy.
This 8-week, crossover study will compare the quality of 24-hour IOP control with TTFC versus travoprost when both medications are dosed in the evening. Such a crossover comparison may determine the real efficacy of the new fixed combination versus travoprost monotherapy. The results should enhance the investigators understanding on the best dosing of TTFC and may influence its clinical use in Europe. Finally, the results would better delineate the future role of TTFC in glaucoma management after PG monotherapy, or instead of unfixed therapy with PG analogs and timolol. This study should assist the general ophthalmologist worldwide to plan optimal stepwise medical therapy.
A prospective randomized trial to compare the safety and efficacy of the Ex-PRESS to trabeculectomy in patients with open angle glaucoma who failed medical or are allergic to medical treatment and for which filtering surgery is indicated. Surgical success was defined as 5 mmHg ≤ intraocular pressure ≤ 18 mmHg, with or without medications, without further glaucoma surgery. Postoperative intraocular pressure, number of medications, complications and success rates were followed for 2 years.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of INS115644 Ophthalmic Solution in subjects with bilateral ocular hypertension or early primary open angle glaucoma and to investigate the intraocular pressure lowering effects of INS115644 Ophthalmic Solution.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of PF 03187207.
Patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension currently being treated with latanoprost 0.005%, and in need of additional IOP lowering will be randomized to receive either brimonidine 0.1% or brinzolamide 1% three-times daily as adjunctive therapy to latanoprost 0.005%
Patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension currently being treated with latanoprost 0.005%, and in need of additional IOP lowering, will be randomized to receive either bimatoprost 0.03% or travoprost 0.004% in place of latanoprost 0.005%
During the glaucomatous disease process, subpopulations of cells may be dead, damaged or healthy. Visual function changes could be observed due to a recovering of the suffering ganglion cells after the intraocular pressure reduction. This study aims at evaluating the correlation between intraocular pressure reduction and visual function changes in glaucoma patients after using antiglaucoma medications.
The purpose of this study is to determine how well the DDLS (Disc Damage Likelihood Scale) (which is a method used by the eye doctor to evaluate how healthy the optic nerve is) measures up to the standard glaucoma tests: OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography), the HRT (Heidelberg Retinal Tomography) and the HVF (Humphrey Visual Field).
Retinal structures are difficult to visualize because the retina is optically transparent. In glaucoma, the microglia in the retina becomes activated in eyes with glaucomatous damage. The microglia forms a dense meshwork which resembles gliosis-like alterations, which may increase light scattering. With appropriate technology, increased reflection and light scattering from the retina may be detected in eyes of glaucoma patients. In this study, we investigate whether clinically observable retinal gliosis-like alterations occur more often in patients with glaucoma than in non-glaucomatous controls, and whether gliosis-like alterations are associated with a vasospastic propensity.
