NCT ID: NCT02153515 Enrolling by invitation - Dry Eyes Clinical Trials

Treating Dry Eyes and Corneal Ulcers With Fingerprick Autologous Blood

FAB
Start date: April 2014
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

To investigate if fresh finger prick autologous blood (FAB) instead of serum from venesection, is a safe and effective treatment for dry eyes and corneal ulcers/ epithelial defects. Currently there are no studies on the use of whole fresh blood for the treatment of chronic ulcers, persistent epithelial defects or dry eyes. Unpublished case reports indicate that fresh blood can be an effective tool to the treatment of corneal pathology.
