Filter by:MicroPulse transscleral laser therapy (TLT) is proven to be effective in reducing intraocular pressure with minimal complications in either primary or secondary glaucoma. However, its impact on the human ocular surface remains unexplored. This study aims to bridge this gap by examining the clinical and histopathological effects of MicroPulse TLT on the ocular surface.
The purpose of the present study is to compare the outcome of multifocal toric intraocular lens with standard multifocal lens plus incisional surgery in patients undergoing bilateral cataract surgery.
The Pentacam HR system (OCULUS) has been suggested to be one of the most sensitive instruments for corneal examination before corneal refractive surgery
Soft contact lenses can affect the ocular surface and sometimes cause intolerance. The aim of this study is to measure corneal sensitivity using the Swiss Liquid Jet aesthesiometer at baseline, after one and after six weeks, in novice daily contact lens wearers.
Soft contact lens wear reduces the amount of oxygen reaching the eye, which may have an influence on corneal sensitivity. The aim of this study is to measure corneal sensitivity with means of liquid jet esthesiometry at baseline and after 6 days of continuous, extended contact lens wear.
This study aimed to investigate whether femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK (FS-LASIK) surgery causes inflammation in the anterior chamber and to analyze its effect on endothelial cells.
The aim is to find out more about how corneal sensory fibres react to different types of stimuli (liquid / tactile / nylon thread) and how this can be consciously perceived by the individual. Is it possible to generate a stimulus that delivers a repeatable and reliable response within a useful stimulus force range which allows an interpretation / evaluation of normal / expected activity of superficial nerve fibres in the cornea? The study group will be divided into three groups of individuals: two groups with different types of contact lenses (CL) and one without CL, as sensitivity changes are thought to occur with CL wear. A very interesting research question is to find out, if such sensitivity differences can be detected with the nature of the stimuli applied in this study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a single escalating doses of BD111 CRISPR/Cas9 mRNA Instantaneous Gene Editing Therapy administered via corneal injection in participants with refractory herpetic viral keratitis.
This will be a single-centre, randomized, pilot study. 30 patients with diabetes who previously had received Argon laser photocoagulation will be enrolled.
The development and validation of a concise, practical, on-line, self-administered, self-archiving, and self-scoring PRO questionnaire for routine clinical use in refractive surgery is the primary study objective. Secondary objectives are to gather outcome data from patients before and after surgery in each of the following domains comprising key elements of vision related quality of life: spectacle dependence; quality of vision; eye comfort; freedom; emotional well-being; and overall satisfaction with the results of surgery. Patients undergoing refractive surgery at Moorfields Private Outpatient Clinic will be enrolled in the study in the validation phase.
