Rose Bengal Electromagnetic Activation with Green light for Infection Reduction II (REAGIR II) is a randomized, double-masked feasibility study. The purpose of this study is to determine differences in 6-month visual acuity between medical antimicrobial treatments alone versus antimicrobial treatment plus cross-linking with rose Bengal (RB-PDT). Patients presenting to one of the Aravind Eye Hospitals in India or to the Federal University of São Paulo ophthalmology clinic in Brazil with smear-positive and/or culture positive typical (I.e. non-Nocardia or Mycobacteria) bacterial corneal ulcers and moderate to severe vision loss, defined as Snellen visual acuity of 20/40 of worse, will be eligible for inclusion. Those who agree to participate will be randomized to one of two treatment groups: - Group 6, RB-PDT Plus Early Steroids: topical 0.5% moxifloxacin plus topical difluprednate 0.05% plus RB-PDT - Group 7, Sham RB-PDT Plus Early Steroids: topical 0.5% moxifloxacin plus topical difluprednate 0.05% plus sham RB-PDT
This study is an observational prospective cohort study which aims to generate an antibiogram and to assess the clinical responses and outcomes of microbial keratitis patients, treated with empiric topical antimicrobial therapies, with the main objective being to recommend the most effective empiric therapy. Microbial keratitis patients are attending the Cornea Outpatient Clinic at Alexandria Main University Hospital, Alexandria, Egypt.
To determine whether the Peschke PXL-330 is safe and effective in the treatment of corneal thinning conditions.
To determine whether the Peschke PXL-330 system is safe and effective in the treatment of corneal thinning conditions.
This study is a prospective, randomized, open-label, two arms, clinical study aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with Hyper-CL™ lens + Antibiotics compared with treatment with Antibiotics only, in subjects with Bacterial keratitis. The design of the Hyper-CL™ lens increases contact time of the antibiotics on the cornea enabling increased bioavailability of the active drug.
This is a study comparing a new treatment for bacterial keratitis (also known as corneal ulcers) with the current standard of care. It is a randomized trial, and the investigators plan to test whether besifloxacin (a new antibiotic) in comparison to the current standard of treatment, fortified antibiotic drops (cefazolin and tobramycin).
The corneal collagen cross linking is currently used in the treatment of keratoconus but this procedure has also a sterilizing non-specific effect on bacteria and fungus. So the corneal cross linking in association with the antibiotic treatment could result in a reduction of the duration of epithelial complete healing of the cornea.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficiency of CACICOL20 for bacterial keratitis. It is a double blinded comparison of epithelial defect in two groups of patients randomized between CACICOL20 and physiological salt solution.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of collagen cross-linking for treatment of infectious keratitis.
