Filter by:To determine age-adjusted reference values of the visuALL Field Analyzer (vFA) retinal sensitivity and to assess the repeatability of the measured values and compare them with those measured by a Standard Automatic Perimetry (SAP).
The purpose of the study is to compare the effectiveness and safety profile of ExPress implantation versus partial deep sclerectomy combined with ExPress implantation with simultaneously phacoemulsification.
This study seeks to test whether these over-the-counter nutritional supplements have an impact on patients' performance during visual field testing.
This prospective, interventional, randomized clinical study was done at Alpha Vision Center, Zagazig, Egypt. Patients with coexisting cataract and glaucoma were randomized to receive either phaco-viscocanalostomy (Phacovisco group) or phaco-viscocanalostomy with Ologen® implant (OloPhacovisco group) . Follow-up period was 2 years. Nd:YAG laser goniopuncture was done in cases where the intraocular pressure (IOP) was elevated above 21 mmHg after discontinuation of corticosteroid eye drops at any follow-up visit. Our hypothesis is that using Ologen® implant as a spacer in the subscleral reservoir in phaco-viscocanalostomy reduces fibrosis and increase the success rate of this operation
The purpose of this study is to evaluate both the safety and feasibility of the surgical implantation of the ARGOS-SC implant during non-penetrating glaucoma surgery and the safety and usability of the ARGOS-SC implant and system in the year following the implantation.
Glaucoma is an eye disease that results in damage to the optic nerve that progresses over time. One of the main risk factors in glaucoma is an increase in intraocular pressure, caused by a build-up of fluid in the eye. Glaucoma can result in blindness if left untreated and as such it is extremely important to diagnose and treat the condition. Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) is a laser treatment that facilitates the outflow of fluid from inside the eye. This has the potential of reducing the intraocular pressure within the eye (the main way in which this disease is treated since there is no cure) and may assist in helping to control the progression of this disease. SLT (standard treatment) is a technique routinely carried out by glaucoma specialists. It is conducted using a special type of lens (goniolens) that gently sits on the front surface of the eye. The procedure takes approximately 5 minutes in duration. This new treatment, Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) is performed directly, without there being any need to use a goniolens which sits on the eye, and it is a shorter and simpler technique to conduct when compared to the standard SLT technique. The purpose of this study is to assess the hypothesis that the treatment by new automated device for DSLT is not worse in comparison with the standard SLT and determine that it is effective in reducing intraocular pressure.
Santen will evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering effect and efficacy of DE-117 ophthalmic solution 0.002% in latanoprost low/non-responder subjects diagnosed with POAG or OHT
Glaucoma is characterized by irreversible vision loss through the progressive death of optic nerve fibers unless timely diagnosis and adequate treatment are provided. Medical therapy is aimed at lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) below a clinically determined target level in order to prevent or slow glaucoma progression. IOP is known to vary with the time of day as well as with daily activities. The current way of assessing nycthemeral IOP fluctuation is to perform repeated discrete tonometry measurements, allowing only snapshot and non-continuous measurements once per hour in the best cases. The procedure is cumbersome, expensive, inconvenient (disturbed sleep cycle as patient is awoken for nocturnal/sleep period measurements) and may not detect crucial IOP values in time. Sensimed AG has developed a new contact lens (CL)-based device intended to continuously measure IOP over 24 hours. The objective of this study is to investigate the use of device for 24-hour IOP monitoring in healthy subjects and glaucoma patients.
The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NCX 470 ophthalmic solution in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. Three different concentrations of NCX 470 ophthalmic solution (0.021%, 0.042%, and 0.065%) will be compared to latanoprost 0.005% ophthalmic solution.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and performance of the ARGOS-IO system in patients with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG)
