Filter by:Study: observational prospective clinical study. Study population: Subjects over 55 years old with drusen secondary to intermediate AMD. Recruitment: at the Medical Retinal Consultation from the Ophthalmology Department of CHULC. Primary outcome: Identifying imaging predictors of iAMD progression.
The EUROLIGHT study is being conducted to collect real life data for the safety and effectiveness of PBM in dry AMD, in routine clinical practice both retrospectively and prospectively.
In the RoTIS study, the investigators would like to test the robotic stabilizer for the subretinal injection of tPA in patients with subretinal hemorrhage during standard-of-care surgery. The surgical devices used during this procedure will be the following: - The robotic stabilizer (prototype - FAMHP approval received) - 41G subretinal needle (CE marked - used within label) - Inicio micro-injection system (CE marked - used within label) The Inicio system mounted with the 41G needle will be held by the robot, and guided by the surgeon towards the required position. When the tip of the needle is in the desired subretinal position, the robotic stabilizer will be locked and the tPA will be injected till sufficient subretinal bleb formation is obtained, with a maximal duration of up to 3 minutes. As performed routinely, the surgical view through the microscope will be video-recorded and while the injection is being administered, the built-in iOCT of the Artevo surgical microscope (Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) will be used to scan the retina area around the injection site to record the subretinal bleb formation for later review.
This is a Prospective, Non-interventional, Multicenter, Long-term Follow-up Study to Evaluate SKG0106 in the Treatment of Patients with Neovascular (Wet) Age-related Macular Degeneration (nAMD). All subject who completed the parent clinical study (NCT06213038 and NCT05986864) will undergo safety and efficacy assessments up to 5 years post study drug injection.
Macular edema in diabetes, defined as retinal thickening within two disc diameters of the center of the macula, results from retinal microvascular changes that compromise the blood-retinal barrier, causing leakage of plasma constituents into the surrounding retina and consequently retinal edema. Thickening of the basement membrane and reduction in the number of pericytes are believed to lead to increased permeability and incompetence of the retinal vasculature. This compromise of the blood-retinal barrier leads to the leakage of plasma constituents into the surrounding retina with subsequent retinal edema. Hypoxia produced by this mechanism can also stimulate the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) increases retinal vascular permeability, causes breakdown of the blood-retina barrier and results in retinal edema. Diabetic macular edema (DME) is the most common cause of visual reduction in patients with Diabetes Mellitus. The prevalence of DME globally is around 6.8 %. Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes and the leading cause of blindness worldwide. DME is a complication of diabetic retinopathy that affects the macula, which is located at the center of the retina and responsible for central vision. Bangladesh is the 10th country in the world for the number of adults living with diabetes with some 7.1 million (5.3-12.0). In Bangladesh, it is therefore expected that diabetic secondary complications, like DR, will increase along with the rising trend of diabetes mellitus. The use of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies has revolutionized in the treatment of many diseases. In recent years, millions of patients have been successfully treated with these biological agents. Ranibizumab is one such therapeutic monoclonal antibody for intraocular use. Ranibizumab is a humanized, recombinant, immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody fragment against vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) and thus prevents choroidal neovascularization. The small size of ranibizumab allows for enhanced diffusion into the retina and choroid.
The purpose of this study is to assess the sensation of ocular dry eye symptom after an intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF.
To assess the usability, tolerability, and repeatability of the set of VR headset-based tasks.
This study is an open-label, prospective, multi-center extension study on the continued use of photobiomodulation (PBM) in subjects with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) that participated in the CSP005 LIGHTSITE III study.
Clinical vision measurements usually involve printed charts with an eye care professional interpreting patient responses to generate a score. Those scores determine the need for or outcome of treatment. Detecting change can be improved with strict procedures/scoring, lending itself to computerisation. This in turn allows integration with electronic medical records. Many eye tests could be computerised in this way. At Guys and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, the investigators have developed and validated a computerised test of distance visual acuity, called COMPlog which is now in widespread use. The investigators now want to increase the range of tests available. There is also a need to longitudinally monitor for adverse change. Such monitoring must be developed to keep false positive and false negative change detection to a minimum. The aims of this two year linked program are to: Part A) validate an extended range of computerised vision measurement tests against their gold standard hard copy printed equivalents. Some of these tests are designed for use in children and all are meant to quantify both normal and impaired vision. Patients of all ages and visual function will therefore be recruited from St Thomas' Hospital. The specific tests we aim to validate are logMAR Letter Near Acuity, Word Near Acuity, Letter Contrast Sensitivity, Auckland Optotypes Picture Acuity, Low Contrast Letter Acuity, Stereoacuity and Vanishing Optotypes. Patients will undergo test-retest measurements with up to two of these. Part B) Iteratively develop an application for use in home monitoring of subjects at risk of treatable vision loss due to age related macular degeneration. All computerised tests in parts A and B will be performed on prototype software. Eye patients will be recruited as subjects. Patients recruited to part A will undergo tests on one day for up to an hour, subjects in part B will participate for between 1 hour and two months.
