Filter by:This is a multi centre, single arm, prospective observational phase 4 study in naive or pretreated patients with myopic neovascularization. The patients will be treated with intravitreal injections of Aflibercept following a real life protocol. This sudy aims to evaluate the visual acuity during a 36 months period of time.
Short-sightedness, also called myopia, makes objects in the distance, such as the television, look blurred. This is caused by the eye growing too long, something that usually happens while children are also getting taller. People with myopia can see better with glasses or contact lenses, but this doesn't stop their eyes continuing to become more short-sighted. The CHAMP UK study is investigating a type of eye drop called atropine that might help to stop myopia getting worse as children get older.
Randomized, controlled, multisite, subject-and observer-masked, 3-arm parallel group clinical trial of 36-month duration to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel spectacle lens design in reducing the progression of juvenile myopia.
The study aims to observe the ocular development and refractive error changes among school children and adolescents
Myopia has been increasing in prevalence and severity throughout the world over the last 30 years. Increasing levels of myopia are associated with increased frequencies and severity of various ocular pathologies, including cataracts, glaucoma, retinal detachments and other retinal pathologies and myopic maculopathy. Slowing myopia progression at a young age before the eye reaches excessive axial length may help to reduce the future risks of these ocular pathologies. Conventional spectacles and contact lenses are prescribed correct myopia by moving the central focus of the eye for distance viewing from in front of the retina to on the retina centrally, or at the fovea. To varying degrees, these lenses allow the light to focus behind the retina, at varying peripheral retinal locations. These findings have led to efforts to design spectacle and contact lenses which correct peripheral hyperopic defocus, to reduce myopia progression. The consensus theory for how both multifocal contact lenses and orthokeratology can control myopia progression is that they each can reduce, eliminate, or reverse relative peripheral hyperopic defocus. Existing published studies on the use of multifocal contact lenses to control myopia in humans have utilized lenses with the distance correction in the center with peripheral plus power to correct the peripheral blur. Until recently, there have been no daily disposable multifocal lenses in the US market with distance center designs. The NaturalVue contact lens from Visioneering Technologies, Inc. is the first daily disposable distance center multifocal in the US. It has a novel extended depth of focus design where the distance correction is in the center of the optical zone, surrounded by a zone characterized by having a seamless, rapid transition from the distance power to a highly plus power at the edge of the optical zone. This study will analyze the myopia progression of patients in the investigator's practice while wearing their habitual visual corrections for periods up to two years prior to being switched to NaturalVue contact lenses. They will then be followed for up to two years after beginning use of this novel lens design and the differences in their myopia progression after versus before this novel lens will be analyzed. Axial lengths will be measured with the IOLMaster after switching to NaturalVue, at six-month intervals and will be compared to axial lengths which have been collected with habitual corrections.
Stage 1: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 concentrations of NVK-002 compared to Vehicle (placebo) for slowing the progression of myopia in children over a 3 year treatment period. Stage 2: To observe safety and efficacy in subjects re-randomized to one (1) year of treatment with NVK-002 or Vehicle following 3 years of treatment in children with progressive myopia.
The assessment of the refractive state of the eye is a fundamental and important part of ophthalmic and optometric clinical practice. The development of an unsupervised online subjective refraction method makes a refraction more accessible and can be quite cost-saving. In this study, the investigators want to validate an online refraction method which was recently created in the Netherlands. The study comprises two different set of participants: Part one contains fifty healthy volunteers, 18-40 years of age, with a refractive error and no other ophthalmic pathology. Part two contains fifty patients with an ophthalmic pathology. The online refraction outcomes will be compared to a manifest refraction and automated refraction in a cross-sectional study design.
Study of low dose atropine in preventing the onset and progression of myopia in high risk children with pre-myopia or low-myopia.
This study aims to determine the treatment effect of vision therapy on myopic children by assessment of accommodative function before and after therapy.
The objective of this study is to compare the clinical performance of senofilcon A lens with the stenfilcon A lens each for one week of daily disposable wear.
