Filter by:This study is an evaluation of the short term effects on CNV perfusion of a same-day administration of photodynamic therapy (PDT) with Visudyne® and an intravitreal injection of Lucentis® (ranibizumab, 0.3 mg). An evaluation of the short term effects on CNV perfusion of this combined treatment is needed for better understanding of treatment effects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate two surgical interventions in patients with AMD.
The purpose of this study is to define phenotypic variations in atrophic Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) and to identify predictive factors for disease progression based on fundus autofluorescence imaging.
The purpose of this study is to compare triple therapy using Photodynamic therapy, intravitreal Dexamethasone and intravitreal Ranibizumab injections versus monotherapy with intravitreal Ranibizumab alone for the treatment of Age-Related Macular Degeneration.
The primary purpose of the study is to investigate whether patients with Choroidal Neovascularization secondary to Age-related Macular Degeneration, receiving triple or double therapy compared to monotherapy with Avastin will reduce the intervention rate with equivalent safety and efficacy.
The purpose of this study will be to assess the safety and tolerability and dose-limiting toxicity of a single intravitreal injection of Sirna-027 (AGN211745) and to assess the anatomical changes in the retina, changes in CNV, and changes in visual acuity. Escalation to the next dose cohort will be completed following minimum of 2 weeks follow-up. Patients will be monitored intensively for three months, and then followed-up for safety up to 24 months post-injection.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the ability of the PHP & HPHP to detect newly diagnosed non treated Chorodial neovascularization (CNV) lesion associate with advanced age related Macular Degeneration (AMD) and differentiate them from Early/intermediate/GA AMD
The primary objective of this study is to assess the ability of the PreView PHP(study device)to detect newly diagnosed non-treated Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV)lesion associate with advanced Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) or Myopia and differentiate them from Intermediate AMD or Geographic Atrophy (GA)or patients with high Myopia with no CNV. This study secondary is to enhance NotalVision normative database.
This study will examine skin and blood cells for genetic changes related to the development of age-related macular degeneration, an eye disease that can significantly impair the ability to read, drive, and carry out daily activities. It is the most common cause of vision loss in people over the age of 50. People with age-related macular degeneration and healthy normal volunteers age 50 years or older may be eligible for this study. Candidates will undergo a medical history, physical examination and eye examination with dilation of the pupils. Photographs of the eye will be taken with a special camera. Study participants will have blood drawn three times (no more than 6 tablespoons each time) and will undergo three skin biopsies. For the skin biopsy, an anesthetic is injected under the skin and a small piece of skin-approximately 1/4-inch cube-is removed. The blood draws and biopsies will be done at 7- to 10-day intervals. In most cases, a single biopsy is done at each visit, but it may be necessary to take-at most-one additional biopsy from the other arm during the same visit. Patients will return for one follow-up visit 7 to 10 days after the last biopsy for examination of the biopsy site and removal of any stitches. The results of this study may provide investigators information needed to develop new means of diagnosing and treating age-related macular degeneration.
To study the effect of mild laser treatment on the incidence of exudative complications in soft drusen maculopathy. We hypothesise that mild laser treatment causing a proliferation of the retinal pigment epithelium and enhancing the capacity of clearing drusen material from Bruch's membrane.
