Filter by:Evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of iVue for measuring the total corneal thickness, the epithelial thickness, and the stromal thickness in normal subjects and patients with various corneal conditions.
Evaluate the accuracy of the RTVue-XR and iVue for measuring the total corneal thickness, the epithelial thickness, and the stromal thickness in normal subjects and patients with various corneal conditions.
The investigators will evaluate 30 patients with surgical indication for corneal transplantation. Participants will be divided according to the following diseases diseases: keratoconus, bullous keratopathy, corneal dystrophies. Participants will be informed about the risks and benefits of the study and sign an informed consent form. In the preoperative evaluation will be submitted to a complete ophthalmologic examination with complementary tests, such as optical coherence tomography. One group of participants will undergo corneal surgery using the OCT Lumera microscope RESCAN - ZEISS and another group with a conventional microscope. Everyone will have their filmed and documented surgery. The team of surgeons will answer the questionnaire on the surgical difficulty about the ease of assessing corneal transplantation. After surgery, participants will be assessed on days 1, 7,15, 30, 60, 90 and 180 after surgery. Surgeries and study procedures will be performed by the same team of surgeons and performed by IPEPO - Paulista Institute of Studies and Research in Ophthalmology / Vision Institute.
An increasing number of clinical studies on SD-OCT of ocular pathologies and potential new clinical applications has recently been published in the peer-reviewed literature. However, the successful use of SD-OCT in routine clinical use depends upon the diagnostic sensitivity, biometric accuracy and reliability of the SD-OCT machines. This prospective, comparative, observational study aims to evaluate the imaging quality and diagnostic performance of two commercially available SD-OCT machines for both the anterior and posterior segment of the eye.
The purpose of this study is to compare the relative efficacy of four different treatment modalities (i.e. aggressive lubrication, bandage contact lens, Ambiodisk amniotic membrane, Prokera amniotic membrane) in the healing of persistent corneal epithelial defects following retina surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the precision and agreement of the study device, a specular microscope, in comparison to a currently commercially available specular microscope in establishing substantial equivalence of the two devices in clinical use for diagnostic purposes of the human cornea.
