There are about 27 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Kosovo. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood product rich in proteins and growth factors. Its application has been the subject of many studies in the field of ophthalmology to stimulate tissue healing and regeneration. Due to its anatomical features (lack of blood vessels), the cornea is among the most susceptible to damage structures of the eye. Therefore, the study of the impact of various regenerative therapies (autologous blood products, serums, ) on corneal lesions is important not only scientifically, but also practically for ophthalmologist. Numerous reports described the healing effect of PRP on corneal lesions.
The aim of this study is the evaluation of corneal transparency and improvement of visual acuity in patients with herpetic stromal keratitis.
Presbyopia is physiological insufficiency of accommodation associated with the aging of the eye that results in progressively worsening ability to focus clearly on close objects.Though presbyopia is a normal change in our eyes as we age, it often is a significant and emotional event because it's a sign of aging that's impossible to ignore and difficult to hide. This defect is usually corrected by using glasses with bifocal power of suitable focal lengths. But some patients don't want to use glasses for correction. In our study purpose is to show that near vision improves and patient satisfaction increases by preparing an intrastromal pocket for emmetropic patients with near vision problems using the SMILE module.
Stroma is a fibrous, tough, transparent and the thickest layer of the corneae. The stroma is composed of organised collagen, which maintains transparency. Keratocytes are located between the lamella collagen fibers and secrete an extracellular matrix, which includes collagen, proteoglycan, crystalline proteins to maintain corneal transparency.
LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) is a type of refractive surgery for correction of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. Yet approximately 30% of operated patients have symptoms like glare, halos, dry eyes and especially residual hypermetrop refractive errors. Residual hypermetrop refractive errors are difficult to treat surgically, the current treatment is Refractive Lens Implantation - risks are similar to those of cataract surgery (endophthalmitis, loss of accommodation, etc.)
Successful treatment of residual refraction 6 months after IOL Implantation with Relex-Smile.
The aim of this study is to assess visual and refractive outcomes after laser vision correction (LVC) - ReLex Smile to correct residual myopic refraction after 6 months of pseudophakic (IOL) implantation. Before SMILE YAG-Laser capsulotomy should be performed on all patients, regardless of posterior capsule ossification, in pseudophakic patients with residual refraction. When the YAG Laser is applied after the SMILE, there will be a diopter change.
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of fresh corneal lenticule implantation as allogenic graft taken from myopic patients to implanted in patients with macular corneal dystrophy using Visumax Femtosecond Laser Smile module surgery.
