Filter by:Single-blind, randomised, single centre, 2-way crossover pilot study to investigate the effectiveness of LAMELLEYE for the treatment of dry eye symptoms in patients with primary Sjögren's Syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical application of advanced ophthalmic imaging devices such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), retinal function imager (RFI), slit-lamp biomicroscopy (SLB), PERG in diseased eyes and normal controls. There are two phases in this study. The first phase is an observational phase which studies the eye in various conditions. The second phase is an interventional phase which studies the changes in the eyes after taking an over-the-counter medical food (Ocufolin) for 6 months.
This trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy of walnut shell glasses moxibustion for dry eye syndrome compared with sodium hyaluronate eye drops.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether SYL1001 ophthalmic solution is safe and effective in the treatment of signs and symptoms of Dry Eye Disease.
This study characterizes acute dry eye symptom control, assessed during exposure to a Controlled Adverse Environment, following use of the TrueTear for 45 days.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy for the treatment of dry eye disease. One eye of the participant will be randomized to receive the IPL treatment.
In subjects with Dry Eye Syndrome: The primary objective of this study is to compare the safety and tolerability of TOP1630 Ophthalmic Solution to placebo. The secondary objectives are to compare the efficacy of TOP1630 Ophthalmic Solution to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye syndrome.
Serum eye drops (SEDs) are used to treat patients with extreme dry eyes and other corneal defects. Serum is used in severe ophthalmic cases where conventional eye drops (artificial tears) have insufficient effect. The use of SEDs in dry eye patients usually has a rapid effect. Most patients claim the effect to be instantaneous, and all symptoms improve within 48 hours. There is evidence suggesting that substances in serum may help in the healing of epithelial defects, such as epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, fibronectin, and/or vitamin A. However, the precise serum factor responsible for alleviating the patient's complaints is currently not known. Commonly, autologous SEDs are used, but they are replaced more and more by allogeneic SEDs prepared from donor serum. Allogeneic SED are derived from healthy voluntary, non-remunerated male donors with blood group AB. The use of allogeneic SED could provide blood bank controlled quality, a safer product in larger quantities that is quickly available for each patient. No double-blind randomized trials are known to exist to detect a difference in result between the effect of allogeneic SED or autologous SED. This pilot study is intended to obtain insight in the ability of autologous and allogeneic SEDs to improve patient dry eye sensation. Our hypothesis is that autologous SEDs (in a 1:1 dilution with saline) result in an improvement of the patient dry eye sensation, while allogeneic SEDs (in a 1:1 dilution with saline) do not.
Background: Dry eye disease (DED) is a common condition causing burden on visual function and reducing quality of life. Corticosteroids and/or cyclosporine eye drops are able to improve DED symptoms, however, side effects of immune suppression and cost lead patients often to suspend treatment. Consequently, is important to identify therapies alleviating DED symptoms. A randomized, controlled, single masked study, was performed in 40 patients affected by mild to moderate DED, to evaluate efficacy and safety of a collyrium based on cross-linked hyaluronic acid (XLHA) added with Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in comparison to an eye drop considered a gold standard for tear substitutes, based on hyaluronic acid (HA) 0.15%. Methods: eye drops were administered four times a day for 90 days to enrolled subjects divided in two groups: group A treated with XLHA+CoQ10, group B treated with HA. Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire, visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), fundus exam, tear break-up time (TBUT), corneal and conjunctival fluorescein staining, corneal esthesiometry, corneal confocal microscopy, were performed at different visits until the 90th day.
The objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of BRM421 Ophthalmic Solution to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye.
