Filter by:The study aims to determine the impact of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) dry eye on low contrast black/white (luminance) and cone color sensitivity performance and improvement in these functions after in-house non-invasive Meibomian gland (MG) expression.
Dry eye disease (DED) is pervasive with some reports estimating over 16 million adults diagnosed in the United States. Currently, artificial tears remain an integral part of managing dry eyes and are mainly used for symptomatic relief. Recent studies have shown there may be therapeutic benefits with regular use of lipid-based artificial tears to improve the structure of the tear film, which may improve tear film stability and provide relief of symptoms. In this study the investigators propose to compare effects on the tear lipid film and its dynamics between 3 lipid based artificial tears and a widely available non-lipid based artificial tear.
This study will investigate how well OC-01 (varenicline) nasal spray can treat the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease in those Sjogren's Syndrome. Patients at least 18 years old with moderate-to-severe Sjogren's dry eye disease may be eligible for this study. If you are eligible to participate in the study and you decide to join, there will be 3 study visits over approximately 1 month. You will also self-administer the nasal spray at home every day, 2 times a day during this month.
The objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of BRM421 OS to vehicle for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
Intense pulsed light (IPL) has been reported to improve signs and symptoms of dry eye (DE). Additionally, meibomian gland secretion of lipids has been observed to improve through the use of IPL. Diquafosol ophthalmic solution (DQS) stimulates P2Y2 receptors on the ocular surface, which enhances mucin secretion from goblet cells. Therefore, tear film stability and hydration of the ocular surface can be achieved independent from lacrimal glands function. The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate and compare the effects of IPL (IPL group), DQS (DQS group) and IPL in combination with DQS (IPL+ group) in participants with persistent DE. Tear film lipid layer (TFLL), non-invasive breakup time (NITBUT), tear meniscus height (TMH), corneoconjunctival staining score (CS), meibum gland (MG) function, conjunctival hyperemia (RS score), ocular surface disease index (OSDI) will be assessed and compared at baseline, day-14, and day-28.
This is a parallel randomized controlled trial for the treatment of dry eye disease. The main objective is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the use of insulin eye drops in the control of moderate-severe dry eye disease. Topical insulin drops will be compared to the current gold standard treatment, cyclosporin and placebo (artificial tears).
Diquafosol ophthalmic solution (DQS) stimulates P2Y2 receptors on the ocular surface, which enhances mucin secretion from goblet cells. Therefore, tear film stability and hydration of the ocular surface can be achieved independent from lacrimal glands function. While it has been observed that 0.1 percent hyaluronate (HA) in artificial tears promotes corneal re-epithelium and improves corneal healing.This prospective, open label pilot study will include 60 eyes of 30 diabetic patients diagnosed with DED and will be randomly assigned to either DQS (n=30 eyes) or ATD group (n=30 eyes). Participants in the DQS group will receive 3% Diquafosol ophthalmic solution, while HA group will receive 0.1% Sodium hyaluronate artificial tears. The dosage for both drugs will be one drop, six times per day for 4 weeks. Tear film lipid layer (TFLL), non-invasive breakup time (NITBUT), corneoconjunctival staining score (CS), meibum gland (MG), conjunctival hyperemia (RS score), ocular surface disease index (OSDI) will be assessed and compared at baseline, day-14, and day-28.
This is a 30-Day, multi-site, single-masked, bilateral, active- controlled, 2-Arm parallel group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an Investigational product.
The primary objective is to evaluate the tolerability and efficacy of CWT-f-002 lubricant eye drops in the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
To evaluate the Chinese herbal tea VGH-DESJS-1 in ocular and oral dryness symptoms of Dry eye syndrome and Sjögren's syndrome
