Filter by:This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of perfluorohexyloctane (NOV03) at two different dosing regimens compared to saline solution in subjects with Dry Eye Disease (DED).
The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate different inflammatory cells that accumulate on the ocular surface, during sleep, and how these cells may contribute to dry eye disease. This study will involve at-home self-collection of tears using an eye wash method with sterile saline solution. While a diagnostic technique, the eye wash may also have a therapeutic benefit in dry eye sufferers, which will be assessed in the second phase of this project.
Dry eye complaints occur in 5.5 to 33.7% of the population, and are ranked as the most frequent symptoms of patients visiting ophthalmologists. Dry eye syndrome is caused by the reduced production and/or improper quality of the tear film. One of the causes of reduced tear production is Sjögren's syndrome. Sjögren's is estimated to affect up to 4 million patients in the US alone. It affects mostly middle aged women (40-50 years of age) with a female to male prevalence ratio of 9:1. The current study seeks to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LO2A ophthalmic solution in the symptomatic treatment of dry eye in patients with Sjögren's syndrome. This study will be conducted in compliance with the protocol, GCP,and applicable regulatory requirements.
An open label, randomized controlled study in a Norwegian population with meibomian gland dysfunction. Patients will be randomized to one of two groups: THERA°PEARL Eye Mask (Bausch & Lomb Inc., New York, USA) or Blephasteam® (Spectrum Thea Pharmaceuticals LTD, Macclesfield, UK). All patients will receive Hylo-comod (URSAPHARM Arzneimittel GmbH, Saarbrücken, Germany).
To study of a novel, therapeutic Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Product (HCT/P) in the treatment of severe dry eye disease that is failing conventional treatments. This pilot study will carefully observe and monitor each qualifying and willing individual for response to treatment, signs of toxicity and adverse effects from the treatment, and for ability of the treatment to improve comfort and restore vision.
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of CyclASol Ophthalmic Solution in comparison to vehicle for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of DED.
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the feasibility of at home thermal therapy with a wireless, portable device, as an effective management of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. This will be done by assessing patients for improvement in symptoms and ocular oil gland function after 4 weeks of a daily thermal therapy application.
Study Title: A Phase 4 Study to Assess the Clinical Efficacy of H.P. Acthar Gel 80 U/ml to Improve the Signs and Symptoms in Subjects with Dry Eye Disease
A randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficiency of serum tears made with Genius PRP for improving signs and symptoms in Dry Eye Disease (DED). Single center, Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Non-significant risk
The aim of the current study is to examine the contribution of intense pulsed light (IPL) for relieving signs and symptoms of dry eye due to meibomian gland dysfunction. The effect of IPL will be examined in a study designed as a randomized controlled trial. In the study arm, subjects will undergo 4 treatment sessions, consisting of IPL pulses immediately followed by expression of the meibomian glands. In the control arm, subjects will undergo the same treatments, except that the IPL pulses will be disabled. For each subject, the duration of the study will be 10 weeks, as explained in the detailed description,
