Filter by:This study was a retrospective observational cohort analysis of subjects aged 65 years and older, who underwent bilateral cataract surgery within a single (15 hospital) healthcare system, to determine the association between type (conventional or blue-light filtering) of implanted intraocular lens and survival.
Assess the performance and usability of the RHMS Visual Acuity Module.
A Phase I Clinical Trial for BAT5906(single-dose;for injection) on Safety and Pharmacokinetics for Patients with Age-related macular degeneration.
Evaluation if a computer-based tutorial ("MacInfo" tool) improves the patients' knowledge about intravitreal drug injections, associated risks, and the underlying diseases of treatment-naive patients.
This Stage II randomized, controlled, longitudinal trial seeks to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and effects of a driving decision aid use among geriatric patients and providers. This multi-site trial will (1) test the driving decision aid (DDA) in improving decision making and quality (knowledge, decision conflict, values concordance and behavior intent); and (2) determine its effects on specific subpopulations of older drivers (stratified for cognitive function, decisional capacity, and attitudinally readiness for a mobility transition). The overarching hypotheses are that the DDA will help older adults make high-quality decisions, which will mitigate the negative psychosocial impacts of driving reduction, and that optimal DDA use will target certain populations and settings.
This study evaluates the retinal and vascular features in patients with macular degeneration under the effects of Bevacizumab intravitreal injections using optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography.
Knowledge of the pathogenesis of ocular conditions, a leading cause of blindness, has benefited greatly from recent advances in ophthalmic imaging. However, current clinical imaging systems are limited in resolution, speed, or access to certain structures of the eye. The use of a high-resolution imaging system improves the resolution of ophthalmoscopes by several orders of magnitude, allowing the visualization of many microstructures of the eye: photoreceptors, vessels, nerve bundles in the retina, cells and nerves in the cornea. The use of a high-speed acquisition imaging system makes it possible to detect functional measurements such as the speed of blood flow. The combination of data from multiple imaging systems to obtain multimodal information is of great importance for improving the understanding of structural changes in the eye during a disease. The purpose of this project is to observe structures that are not detectable with routinely used systems.
To increase the clinical experience of using the rtx1 camera in various retinal disorders and to follow the evolution of structural alterations during retinal diseases using adaptive optics imaging with the rtx1 camera
The primary objectives of the study are to determine the safety of high-dose aflibercept (hereafter referred to as HD) and to determine if HD provides greater intraocular pharmacodynamic (PD) effect and/or longer duration of action compared to intravitreal aflibercept injection (hereafter referred to as IAI).
This study is a randomized, prospective, exploratory, descriptive, open label, parallel group, post-authorization study designed to describe and evaluate two aflibercept treatment regimens aimed at achieving and maintaining a maximum visual function benefit (i.e., BCVA stability). The goal of the study is to compare two strategies for dosing regimen with aflibercept in wet AMD: the standard regimen (one injection every 8 weeks after 3 monthly loading doses in the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration) versus the treat and extend protocol (details outlined below in the "Study Design" section) aiming at achieving and maintaining maximum visual acuity benefit while minimizing the number of injections. Patients will be randomized at week 8 (Month 2) in a proportion of 1:2 (Standard treatment : treat and extend treatment). We aim to demonstrate that the Treat and Extend regimen is equivalent or better to the standard fixed interval regimen in terms of change in patients' visual acuity after a year of treatment and that patients in the Treat and Extend arm will receive fewer injections and fewer visits, than their counterparts in the standard regimen arm. The results could be used to generate a base for future controlled-randomized clinical trials on the timing of treatment administration for patients with wAMD.
