Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the safety, efficacy, and comfort of the investigational TetraLens bandage contact lens in patients who have undergone photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Understand benefit of managing pain following the surgical procedure - Understand the safety of the Tetralens Participants will be asked to wear theTetraLens BCL in one eye for 6 days post-operatively and: document the daily quantity of oral analgesics needed and report ocular pain and contact lens comfort. Researchers will compare the study lens in one eye to a control lens in the contralateral (other eye)
The goal of this clinical intervention is to test if two forms of transcranial current stimulation, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) or transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can alleviate neuropathic eye pain in a sample of 20 patients. The main aims are: - Test if tDCS/tACS can alleviate neuropathic eye pain and/or other cerebral symptoms: brain fatigue, migraine, light sensitivity, etc. - Test if one stimulation method is superior to the other Patients will be treated for a total of fifteen 30-minute stimulation sessions, three times a day over a five-day period, each stimulation separated by approximately 4 hours, with either active tACS or tDCS over the scalp corresponding to primary sensory and motor areas. The patients will have questionnaires to monitor subjective experiences and pupillometry before and after treatment to monitor experimental outcomes.
Background and Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of cooled versus room temperature artificial tears in reducing post intravitreal injection (IVI) ocular discomfort. Patients and Methods: Patients receiving IVI were randomized to either cooled or room temperature tears intervention groups. Both groups rated their ocular discomfort following IVI before intervention and again after administration of cooled or room temperature tears.
Approximately 20% of Veterans have a diagnosis of dry eye (DE) syndrome which is often accompanied by ocular pain that significantly impacts activities of daily living. Currently very few treatments are available for chronic ocular pain, likely because the mechanisms underlying this type of pain have only recently begun to be studied. New treatments that target the neuropathic mechanisms contributing to this type of pain are needed. The proposed research provides a crucial step in addressing the lack of treatments for neuropathic ocular pain by validating the methodology needed to support a randomized controlled trial of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). TENS is a non-pharmacologic, non-addictive, non-invasive treatment that has been shown to be effective in other chronic pain conditions. The present pilot study aims to address the need for preliminary support of safety and efficacy of TENS for ocular pain, t to advance the study of new treatments for the long-term relief of chronic ocular pain and its impact on health.
Individuals with dry eye tend to present with ocular pain which persists despite the use of topical treatment. This could be secondary to somatosensory impairment attributable to neuropathic pain. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of trigeminal nerve stimulation (TNS) on corneal nerves and chronic ocular pain in patients with dry eye.
This study aims to elucidate the effectiveness of oral azithromycin in treating symptomatic dry eye syndrome secondary to Meibomian gland dysfunction.
The degree of perceived pain in the second-eye surgery of cataract patients is significantly higher than that in the first-eye surgery, which can lead to nervous tension during surgery and affect the surgical outcome and satisfaction. Study suggested that in addition to psychological factors, there might be subclinical sympathetic reactions leading to increased pain in the second-eyes, but the objective indicators and clinical relevance are not clear. Therefore, it is necessary to study the mechanism of second-eye pain in cataract surgery, and to provide a test index that can effectively predict the degree of intraoperative pain in patients, as an important reference for the development of a suitable time for second eye surgery. This study is based on clinical case studies, recruiting patients with clinically diagnosed binocular age-related cataract and require binocular surgery, to compare the correlation of intraocular inflammatory factors in the second eye and patients' self-pain scores while both eyes' surgery are completed by the same doctor in the same operating room, and the correlation of the change of inflammatory factors and the time interval between the two eyes surgery, to analyze the second-eye subclinical sympathetic reaction changing with the time interval after the first cataract surgery from the molecular biological results. Using the latest international anterior segment vascularization optical coherence tomography(OCT) scan and optical microvascular imaging(OMAG) analysis technology to quantify iris blood flow, this study analyzes the iris blood flow density, vascular density and other indicators before and after cataract surgery, and carry out its correlation with the degree of intraocular subclinical sympathetic reaction, providing a rapid, non-invasive objective examination index of the second-eye subclinical sympathetic response.
The DRy eye Outcome and Prescription Study (DROPS) is a large observational multicentre study exploring the 'real world' effectiveness of artificial tears in dry eye disease and determinants of efficacy. The aim is to include at least 635 symptomatic dry eye patients who are prescribed artificial tears. All trainees and fellows in London are invited to become collaborators: collaborators are asked to consent patients, assess signs at baseline, and give patients questionnaires at baseline and 4 weeks (for home completion). In tandem, we are conducting a qualitative review of ophthalmologists' prescribing behaviours for dry eye disease.
Evaluation of the Safety, Systemic Pharmacokinetics, and Tolerability of Single and Repeat Ocular Instillations of Loteprednol Etabonate Ophthalmic Gel, in Normal Healthy Volunteers
The purpose of this study is to determine if SAF312 eye drops have an adequate safety and efficacy profile to justify further clinical development for the treatment of ocular pain associated with corneal epithelial defect such as after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) surgery
