Filter by:This will be a Phase 3, multicenter, vehicle-controlled, double-masked, randomized study conducted at approximately 20 sites in the United States. All subjects enrolled will have dry eye disease (DED). The study will consist of Screening (Day -14) and Baseline (Day 1) visits as well as visits at Day 7, Day 14, Day 28, and Day 90 (Study Exit).
Cellular therapy of the corneal stroma with implantation of mesenchymal stem cells derived from autologous adipose tissue with or without a carrier (scaffold) composed by decellularized human donor corneal stroma is used in patients with corneal diseases such as corneal dystrophies, and keratoconus. For this purpose, the study planned to assess the enhancement of visual acuity, pachymetric, and aberrometric parameters with implantation of autologous mesenchymal adipose tissue-derived adult stem cells (ADASCs) alone, 120 µm thickness of decellularized or recellularized laminas with ADASCs. Three groups will be included in the study: (1) Implantation of a single dose of ADASCs alone without scaffold. (2) Implantation of decellularized human corneal lamina without ADASCs. (3) Implantation of the recellularized human corneal lamina with ADASCs.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of applying pulse electrical stimulation around eye in dry eye disease patients who are scheduled for LASEK surgery.
The objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of two different concentrations of ST-100 Ophthalmic Solution to placebo (vehicle) for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye.
The objectives of this trial are to assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of A197 ophthalmic solution in comparison to a vehicle control in the treatment of subjects with Dry Eye Disease.
After topical installation of one drop of 0.3% commercially available ofloxacin (Oxatrex®) four times at intervals of 15min in catarract patients with Dry Eye Disease, aqueous humour samples will be collected intraoperatively, one hour after the last installation. Concentration of ofloxacin in aqueous humour will be measured by HPLC-MS/MS.
The choroid, which is located between the retina and the sclera, is a connective tissue layer that is densely packed with blood vessels and is responsible for supplying oxygen and nutrients to the retina's periphery. One of the primary functions of the choroid is to support the metabolism of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). It is implicated in the pathogenesis of a variety of retinal disorders, including age-related macular degeneration, polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy, central serous chorioretinopathy, and high myopia-associated chorio retinal atrophies. Because choroidal alteration has a fundamental role in the development and progression of these diseases, choroidal thickness provides comprehensive information to physicians. For the study of the choroid, researchers have used ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging MRI, and Doppler laser, but these methods have limited utility due to a lack of resolution. Contrary to this, indocyanine green (ICG) angiography provides valuable clinical information but does not provide cross-sectional images of the choroid for in vivo research studies. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has gained in popularity in clinical and experimental ophthalmology over the last decade as a way to acquire detailed, three-dimensional images of the retina . Imaging the entire choroid, on the other hand, has proven to be more difficult due to the significant decline in signal strength beyond the RPE prompted by the pigment in the RPE and choroid and light scattering in the vasculature. The development of improved depth imaging (EDI) by Spaide et al. opened the door to quantitative choroid assessment. Choroid imaging is currently possible using one of two optical coherence tomography (OCT) techniques: (1) spectral-domain (SD) OCT utilizing standard light sources using EDI, and (2) swept-source (SS) OCT using a long wavelength light .A 1 m-band light source is used in SS-OCT, which penetrates deeper into the retino choroidal tissues and so optimizes the resolution. To better visualize retinal and choroidal changes, SS-OCT can concurrently display a focused image of both the retina and the choroid. This renders it an accurate technology for assessing choroidal thickness. Such findings of choroidal thickness changes revealed that the choroid and choroidal thickness may be important attributes in the evaluation of ocular pathology. To properly understand the scientific value of these potential choroidal thickness variations, it would appear that comprehensive and systematic normative values for choroidal thickness are fundamental.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness for applying the electrical stimulation transcutaneously around the eyes and peripheral nerves nearby. The outcomes are compared between the patients with mild- or moderate-level dry eye disease using the real electrical stimulator and the sham electrical stimulator.
This is a Phase 1 randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled study performed with healthy participants to assess the safety and tolerability of laquinimod eye-drops.
The purpose of this study is to verify the safety of tinted soft scleral eye shields when IPL is applied directly on eyelids.
