Filter by:The purpose of this study is to develop an educational program that will help improve the patients' understanding of what laser treatment is, how it might be beneficial to them, and why it should be the first eye pressure lowering glaucoma treatment to consider before the use of glaucoma eye drops.
A partial least squares regression model for visual field testing among glaucoma patients will be developed. In addition, microperimetry will be compared to conventional perimetry and reproducibility will be assessed.
This study will evaluate the safety and IOP-lowering effectiveness of XEN in patients with Angle Closure Glaucoma.
This study evaluates the efficacy and tolerability of a new formulation of latanoprost without Benzalkonium Chloride (BAK-free). Patients with open-angle glaucoma who were using BAK-containing latanoprost ophthalmic solution for ≥6 months, switched to BAK-free latanoprost ophthalmic emulsion.
Perimetry is a well-established method that is used to measure the visual field functions of humans. Commercially available products, such as the OCTOPUS 900 (Haag-Streit AG, Koeniz, Switzerland), are commonly used for assessing the visual field. Such devices are of critical value for patients suffering of glaucoma and neuro-ophthalmic conditions. The operating principle is to sequentially present light stimuli of different intensity at different locations within the visual field in an automatic way. Algorithms that select what locations and intensities to present over time are called strategies. These have the goal to provide both a fast and accurate estimation of the visual field function. Recently, new strategies were developed that are faster and equally accurate as the strategies used today. The technological advancement of these new methods lies primarily in the ability to estimate location sensitivities without observing them directly but by leveraging previously queried locations. For this the investigators plan to implement the next generation of perimetry strategies into an OCTOPUS 900 and to test it in healthy subjects and glaucoma patients.
This study evaluates the possible acute changes in peripapillary blood flow after instillation of antiglaucoma medications in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG), normal tension glaucoma (NTG), or ocular hypertension (OHTN) using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) angiography.
It has been hypothesized that potential effects of laser Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy may affect macular pigment as well as choroidal thickness, macular thickness and anterior chamber parameters, so it was aimed to investigate possible effects of Nd: YAG laser posterior capsulotomy on macular pigment optical density, choroidal thickness, macular thickness and anterior chamber parameters in cases with posterior capsule opacification in this study.
The investigators would like to know if different imaging devices can improve the quality of images and visualization of imaged tissues. Also, the investigators would like to find out whether these changes are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases. Using images of previous participants will allow us to demonstrate the advancement of different technologies, as well be used to allow comparisons between current technologies.
The purpose of this research study is to better understand the impact of visual impairment caused by different eye diseases on the ability to perform daily activities and compare it to that in patients without eye diseases.
To test the safety and effectiveness of AR-13324 0.02% and 0.04% ophthalmic solution relative to placebo in Japanese/Japanese-American subjects with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in US.
