Filter by:This is a prospective, multi-centre, cross sectional observational study to determine the prevalence of ocular surface disease (OSD) in glaucoma patients, nationwide. The study also analyses sub group of OSD prevalence, stratified according to the treatment types (i.e. preserved, preservative-free, and combination of preservative-free and preserved eyedrops), and illustrates the patient perspective on OSD.
The aim of this project is to compare trabeculectomy with Preserflo / Innfocus Microshunt in patients with Primary Angle Open Glaucoma and Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma regarding the reduction of intraocular pressure.
The use of Cyclodestruction procedures has been extended to patients with non-refractory glaucoma and good vision. Our aim is to compare the safety and efficacy of three cyclodestructive treatments; High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) Cyclocoagulation versus micropulse cyclophotocoagulation (MP-CPC) versus transscleral continuous wave cyclophotocoagulation (CW-CPC) for the treatment of Primary open angle glaucoma.
A prospective, parallel-group, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled clinical study will be conducted with an estimated 72 participants. The objective of this study is to determine if Mirtogenol has an additive effect on the reduction of intraocular pressure when combined with bimatoprost in the Hispanic population with primary open angle glaucoma. Baseline clinical data will be collected for each participant and they will be randomized 1:1 to a treatment group (bimatoprost 0.01% and Mirtogenol) or control group (bimatoprost 0.01% and placebo). Efficacy and safety of Mirtogenol will be measured during the 24 week study. Participants will be evaluated in five visits: screening and baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12 and week 24. The tests that will be performed include visual acuity, visual field evaluation, applanation tonometry, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and pachymetry. Side effects or adverse effects will be reported and evaluated by the ophthalmologist at each visit to access the safety of Mirtogenol. The primary efficacy endpoint of intraocular pressure (IOP) will be compared using a t-test and will have an 80% probability to detect a difference between treatments at a 0.05 significance level.
Laser endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation (ECP) has been in use for the treatment of glaucoma for over 20 years and is usually used in conjunction with cataract surgery. In the US it is one of the most commonly performed cataract 'plus' surgeries. The take-up of ECP laser has been much lower in the UK and Europe. This is partly due to the lack of robust clinical evidence from randomised controlled trials to justify its use in routine practice. More recently the advent of minimally invasive glaucoma surgery techniques (MIGS) has increased the options available for cataract 'plus' surgery. Without any randomised controlled trial data for the use of ECP laser in this context the increasingly popular use of MIGS devices, such as iStent (the current market leader) may further marginalise the use of ECP laser for cataract 'plus' surgery in patients with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) and visually significant cataract. To further evaluate the use of ECP laser for the treatment of glaucoma in patients with glaucoma and cataract, investigators plan to conduct a randomised controlled trial comparing cataract surgery alone versus cataract surgery plus ECP laser surgery. Investigators will compare the efficacy of these interventions for the treatment of glaucoma based on clinical outcomes and also undertake a cost-benefit analysis, taking into account the cost of surgery, any reduction in clinical time allocation for procedures, the frequency of intra- and post-operative complications, and any reduction in the need for topical glaucoma treatments post-surgery, as well as the frequency with which further glaucoma filtering surgery is needed for patients in each group. Investigators anticipate that a total number of 160 patients (80 in each arm) will be adequate to detect whether there is any difference in efficacy between cataract surgery + ECP versus cataract surgery alone. Recruitment is expected to take around 9-12 months. Participants will undergo treatment wash-out (28 days minimum) of any eye drops they use for their glaucoma prior to data collection at baseline (before surgery) and prior to data collection at one-year and at two-years post-surgery. Results will be reviewed during an interim analysis at 6 months once 50 patients have reached that time point.
Glaucoma represents a group of conditions that cause damage to the optic nerve and can lead to irreversible vision loss. Current treatments are aimed at lowering intraocular pressure while minimizing medication side effects. Lumify™ (Brimonidine Tartrate Ophthalmic Solution 0.025%) is an FDA-approved medication for alleviating eye redness, a common side effect of glaucoma medications. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Lumify™ on eye redness, intraocular pressure, and eyelid position in patients with glaucoma who are already using the Brimonidine 0.1%, 0.15% or 0.2% eye drops.
This is a prospective, single-center, interventional, randomized controlled study comparing Decorin as antifibrotic agent in sub scleral trabeculectomy versus Mitomycin.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of CKD-351.
Prospective and observational study to determine if choroidal thickness increases after non penetrating deep sclerectomy in patients with open angle glaucoma
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of trabeculectomy, glaucoma drainage devices, cyclophotocoagulation and ocular hypotensive eye-drops on IOP elevation with postural change from the sitting to supine positions in eyes with open-angle glaucoma. Patients will be assigned to the different study groups according to their past ocular history. Interventions are similar to all study group and no medical therapy alteration will be made.
