Filter by:Adenoviral keratitis(caused by adenovirus) is one of the most frequently diagnosed eye diseases. Most of these infections have symptoms like (Ocular itchiness and irritation, chemosis (conjunctival edema),photophobia, epiphora, foreign body sensation, epithelial keratitis etc.Adenoviral subepithelial infiltration is one of the most difficult complication to treat. Our purpose is to evaluate corneal transparency, recurrence, and visual acuity in patients with adenoviral subepithelial infiltration by first removing the infiltrative stroma with a smile and implanting the same volume of fresh lenticule in the prepared stromal pocket.
Steroids and Cross-linking for Ulcer Treatment (SCUT II) is an international, randomized, double-masked, clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to determine differences in 6-month visual acuity between medical antimicrobial treatments alone versus antimicrobial treatment plus collagen cross-linking (CXL), as well as to further evaluate findings from subgroup analyses of SCUT. Patients presenting to the Aravind Eye Care System (India), Kaiser Permanente Northern California (USA), or the University of California, San Francisco (USA) with smear-positive and/or culture-positive typical (i.e. non-Nocardia or Mycobacteria) bacterial corneal ulcers and moderate to severe vision loss, defined as Snellen visual acuity of 20/40 or worse, will be eligible for inclusion. Those who agree to participate will be randomized to one of three treatment groups: Group 1: Standard therapy, topical 0.5% moxifloxacin plus topical placebo plus sham CXL Group 2: Early steroids, topical 0.5% moxifloxacin plus topical difluprednate 0.05% plus sham CXL Group 3: CXL plus early steroids, topical 0.5% moxifloxacin plus topical difluprednate 0.05% plus CXL
This is a study of optimal treatments for acanthamoeba keratitis. In the first part of the study, participants will be randomized to chlorhexidine monotherapy or chlorhexidine plus povidone iodine. After four weeks of therapy, participants will be re-randomized to early corticosteroids, later corticosteroids, or placebo.
In this study, investigators want to find the effect of adjuvant collagen cross-linking in the treatment of fungal keratitis
In this study Investigators are going to do early amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) for bacterial keratitis.
The present study was designed to evaluate the treatment of adenoviral corneal opacities with PTK and mitomycin C.
To evaluate the efficacy of topical corticosteroids in treating herpes simplex stromal keratitis in conjunction with topical trifluridine. To evaluate the efficacy of oral acyclovir in treating herpes simplex stromal keratitis in patients receiving concomitant topical corticosteroids and trifluridine. To evaluate the efficacy of oral acyclovir in treating herpes simplex iridocyclitis in conjunction with treatment with topical corticosteroids and trifluridine.
