Filter by:A prospective randomized, and controlled study to compare the effectiveness of PROKERA® SLIM plus standard of care (SOC) in the PROKERA® SLIM Arm to SOC alone in the Control Arm. Subjects presenting with moderate DED defined as corneal fluorescein staining score of ≥ 3 points out of 9 will be recruited.
Commonly know that one of the complications caused by Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is microangiopathy. Microangiopathy in the long term may lead to neuropathy of the corneal nerves. Neuropathy of the cornea will lead to dry eyes in DM patient. One of the artificial tears used in treating dry eyes is sodium hyaluronate. But until recently no research had been done in examining the effect of giving combination of sodium hyaluronate, vitamin A and vitamin E in dry eyes. The antioxidant, and capability of vitamin A and E in promoting cell proliferation may alleviate the symptoms of dry eyes. In this paper we used Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), Tear Break Up time, Schirmer I test and impression cytology to assess baseline and 28 days post therapy in patient with Non-Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (NPDR), and Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR)
The main objective of this study is to establish whether patients with Dry Eye Disease are able to safely tolerate receiving Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) eye drops two times a day for eight weeks (primary 'safety and tolerability' objective). The exploratory objective is to investigate the preliminary efficacy of the use of IVIG eye drops in treating Dry Eye Disease (exploratory efficacy objective) to estimate the effectiveness of the trial intervention and collecting data to inform the design of a future definitive trial. This will be a Randomized controlled trial, in which a total of 28 subjects will be enrolled at 1 clinical site. Subjects will be randomly assigned to one of two groups (#1, #2), with 14 subjects per group. One group will be given placebo (Normal saline eye drops) and the other group will be given eye drops containing the study drug (IVIG).
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of daily supplementation of Hydrolysed Red Ginseng Extract extract on dry eye.
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of rhNGF eye drops at 20 μg/ml concentration administered two or three times daily for 4 weeks in patients with moderate to severe dry eye.
The purpose of this study is to investigate if cleaning the eyelid margin with the ZEST protocol (Zocular Eyelid System Treatment) in patients intolerant to contact lens wear consequent to Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) will improve the MGD and contact lens wear comfort.
The purpose of this post-approval study is to demonstrate that iLux treatment offers comparable treatment effectiveness to LipiFlow for MGD treatment at 12 months post single treatment.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of levocarnitine in the treatment of dry eye in adults with Sjogren's syndrome. This will be a crossover study design with all participants receiving both levocarnitine and placebo.
The purpose of this study is to assess the duration of time (in weeks) for improvement in objective dry eye markers for people who are placed on lifitegrast 0.5% (Xiidra®), an FDA-approved therapy for dry eyes.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of punctal plugs in reducing ocular surface (eye surface) irritation after intravitreal injections prepared by povidone-iodine 5% solution.
