Filter by:The aim of this study is to create a large-scale register of all glaucoma patients diagnosed, followed and treated in a large tertiary centre specialising in glaucoma, in order to analyse whether specific factors influence the progression of the disease or guide our choice of treatment. This should lead to a better understanding of the disease and the factors to be taken into account when choosing the best treatment option for each patient, leading to safer, more effective and patient-centred care.
The objective of this study is to collect data for the development and validation a screening process using aggregate data. In this study, data collection will encompass both retrospective and prospective approaches across multiple sites in the United States.
The purpose of this Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) study is to assess long term clinical performance and safety outcomes for EX-PRESS Glaucoma Filtration Devices Models P-50 and P-200.
Two primary care-based screening systems will be used to identify subjects with referrable glaucoma to hospital care. Subjects between 55 to 65 years old living in two primary care areas (urban area in Lisbon ; countryside setting in Minho) will be invited to a one-time assessment of optic disc and intraocular pressure (IOP). Criteria for referral will differ between centers, with one arm (Lisbon) using an artificial intelligence (AI) reading software of the optic disc picture, the other (Minho) will base their referral based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) retinal nerve fibre layer abnormality. A masked reading center will be established to set the ground truth for diagnosis. This pilot screening trial will explore the level of agreement between both systems as well as their cost effectiveness and identify diagnostic composite scores that could maximize the screening process. Secondary analyses will include the identification of population characteristics that increase effectivity of screening process as well as determining the population less likely to adhere to screening programmes.
Micro pulse transscleral laser treatment (MP-TLT) is a relatively new method to reduce the intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma. New recommendations regarding the treatment protocol has recently been developed and was published 2022. The overall objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the proposed treatment method in an independent study. In addition, the outcome of MP-TLT in patients with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma, which is relatively common in the Nordic countries, and primary open angle glaucoma will be studied separately. The IOP change over the course of one year will be monitored, as well as success rate and survival. Further, patient-reported discomfort from the treatment and the occurrence of any adverse events or complications will be studied.
This observational study will enroll adults with open angle glaucoma (OAG) who had surgery to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) using the CycloPen Micro-Interventional System. Consenting participants will be followed for 24 months after their surgery. Data regarding IOP, use of glaucoma medications, and any side effects related to the surgery will be collected from participants' preoperative examination, their surgery, and postoperative examinations.
The study will assess safety and performance of MINIject implant in patients with open-angle glaucoma uncontrolled by topical hypotensive medications in conjunction with cataract surgery.
Retrospective collection of data from medical records, multicenter, post-market clinical follow-up study.
New extended depth of focus intraocular lenses (IOLs) are being used in a broader spectrum of patients than trifocal IOLs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate visual improvement after cataract surgery in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension undergoing simultaneous cataract surgery with i-Stent implantation with the implantation of a Vivity IOL. Results will be compared with a group of glaucoma or ocular hypertension undergoing isolated cataract surgery with Vivity implantation, as well as with patients with no pathology undergoing cataract surgery and Vivity implantation
Glaucoma is a common eye disease that can lead to blindness. The only known way to reduce the rate of disease progression is by reducing the pressure in the eye (the intraocular pressure, IOP). Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) is an ophthalmic laser intervention with the purpose of reducing the IOP. SLT can be performed in different ways, with four of the treatment protocols being evaluated in the Optimal SLT (OSLT) trial. SLT is a repeatable procedure, but scientific evidence is scarce regarding more than one repetition. In this trial, patients included in the OSLT trial will be invited to the extended trial (OSLT-R), for further follow-up and re-treatment with SLT, if needed.
