Filter by:A retrospective study including 22 patients who have undergone amniotic membrane transplant in our unit up till 2016. Confocal microscopy and anterior segment optical coherence tomography (ASOCT) were performed to assess the retention of amniotic membrane and to detect any corneal structural changes. Comparison was made with 5 controls who had bullous keratopathy awaiting endothelial keratoplasty.
Prospective, feasibility study to evaluate the safety of the EndoArt® for treatment of 30 subjects suffering from corneal edema. Followed up for 12 months.
The Hyper-CL™ lenses are indicated for therapeutic use as a bandage to protect the corneal surface and to relieve corneal pain in the treatment of acute or chronic ocular pathologies, such as bullous keratopathy, corneal erosions, entropion, corneal edema, and corneal dystrophies as well as post-surgical conditions resulting from cataract extraction and corneal surgery. The lenses may be prescribed for daily wear with removal for cleaning and disinfection (chemical, not heat) prior to reinsertion, as recommended by the eye care professional. In addition Hyper-CL™ contact lenses can also provide optical correction during healing if required.
Clinical observation to confirm the clinical safety and efficacy of ODM 5 in the treatment of corneal edema caused by Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy.
The investigators conduct this study to access the effect of corneal edema (the investigators are particularly interested in those who have the clinical central corneal edema) on the variation of intraocular pressure values measured by 3 commercial-available tonometers compare to the current gold standard tonometer; Goldmann applanation tonometer.

Prospective open-label, randomized, crossover clinical study To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Hyper-CL™ lens in subjects suffering from corneal edema. This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of the Hyper-CL™ lens contact lens on corneal edema thickness as compared with salt solution treatment only in subjects suffering from corneal edema. Treatment with the Hyper-CL™ lens may result with greater reduction in edema thickness as compared with treatment with salt solution only in subjects suffering from corneal edema. Men and women suffering from a decrease in vision due to corneal edema that meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria and provide written Informed Consent will be enrolled in the study. A total of 25 subjects will be enrolled. Each subject will be treated with: - Treatment A: Hyper-CL™ lens only (7 days) - Treatment B: Hyper-CL™ lens + salt solution (7 days) - Treatment C: salt solution only (7 days) One week (7 days) of washout without any treatment will be between treatments. Subject will be equally allocated (with a 1:1:1:1:1:1 ratio) to one of the following 6 crossover regimen based on a randomization scheme with blocks stratified by center: C-A-B; B-C-A; A-B-C; C-B-A; B-A-C; A-C-B. Up to 2 centers will participate in this study. Each subject will be followed from baseline to 42 days. All Subjects will come for a clinic visit at 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42 days post first treatment. Completion of active enrolment is anticipated to last approximately 6 months. The primary end point will be achieved when the final study subject has completed 42 day follow-up.
Graft rejection has traditionally been one of the leading causes of cornea transplant failure. To help prevent rejection, corticosteroid eye drops are used for an extended period after transplant surgery. The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and side effects of different corticosteroid dosing regimens after endothelial keratoplasty (cornea transplant) surgery.
Objective of this study is the comparative assessment of the impact of torsional and liquefaction technologies on endothelial cells (ECC), corneal edema (CCT) and corneal sensitivity (CCS) in a sample of cataract patients. Participants were recruited from the Cataract Service of the UHA in a consecutive-if-eligible basis. Eligibility criteria included diagnosis of senile cataract with stage 2 nuclear opalescence according to the Lens Opacities Classification System III (LOCS-3) grading scale [10]. By means of a custom computer randomization program all participants randomly populated two study groups according to the cataract-extraction technology used: a) Torsional group (TG) and b) Liquefaction group (LG).
This prospective study was performed to compare two ophthalmic viscosurgical devices, DisCoVisc (hyaluronic acid 1.6% - chondroitin sulfate 4.0%) and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose 2% in terms of their overall clinical performance during phacoemulsification.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to investigate the efficacy of predosing patients undergoing cataract surgery with the potent corticosteroid difluprednate ophthalmic emulsion 0.05% compared to prednisolone acetate 1% on corneal edema (swelling), and retinal thickness.
