Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in ocular mucin levels in response to a drying environment in subjects with dry eye disease as well as patients who report no history of dry eye disease. It is expected that exposure to the dry environment will alter mucin levels in different ways when comparing the two groups.
Safety and Efficacy of Medications for Migraine in Patients with Dry Eye Disease or Asthenopia
The purpose of this study is to evaluate investigational ocular lubricants for their safety and tolerability on subjects with mild to moderate dry eye disease.
Dry Eye Disease (DED) is a condition where the tear film of the eye becomes unstable and along with ocular surface inflammation and damage leads to inadequate tear production and eye lubrication. This study will evaluate symptom relief and tolerability of ABBV-444 eye drops in adult participants. ABBV-444 is being developed for the treatment of Dry Eye Disease (DED). This is a 30-day, open-label study to evaluate adult participant symptoms and tolerability of ABBV-444. Around 40 participants will be enrolled in 1 site in the United States. Participants will receive 1-2 drops of ABBV-444 in each eye as needed but minimally twice a day for 30 days. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of microblepharoeexfoliation (MBE), intense pulse light (IPL) and meibomian gland expression (MGX) combination in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). The main question it aims to answer are: - Does MBE-IPL-MGX treatment improve dry eye symptoms? - Does MBE-IPL-MGX treatment improve dry eye signs? Participants were assigned to receive either three sessions of MBE-IPL-MGX treatment and home-based therapy (treatment group) or home-based therapy alone (control group). The investigators will compare both groups to see if MBE-IPL-MGX treatment is superior to home-based therapy.
The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 5% tavilermide ophthalmic solution to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
The study is being conducted to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of SHR8028 eye drops in comparison to the vehicle for the treatment of dry eye disease.
Dry eye disease (DED), also called keratoconjunctivitis sicca, is a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by loss of homeostasis of the tear film and accompanied by symptoms such as ocular discomfort and visual disturbance. Patients with moderate-to-severe DED may experience a reduced quality of life due to ocular pain, difficulty in performing daily activities, and depression. Traditionally, dry eye syndrome and allergic conjunctivitis are regarded as 2 different diseases. However, recent literature has shown both conditions share similar characteristics, including several of their signs and symptoms (e.g. red, itchy, watery, and burning eyes). On the other hand, red swollen eyelids, burning sensations, ocular irritation, loss of eyelashes and misdirected eyelashes are also common symptoms of Blepharitis, an inflammatory disorder of eyelids affecting all the age and ethnic groups. First-line therapy for treating dry eye symptoms consists of over the counter (OTC) artificial tear drops, gels, ointments, or lubricants. Manufacturers have developed OTC products that appear to mimic the different layers of the tear film in order to maintain ocular hydration. For these reasons, an interventional, non-comparative, Post Marketing Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study was planned to evaluate the performance and safety of "Xanoftal Next" used to attenuate symptoms of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis, even when associated with dry eye syndrome. The objectives of the PMCF study are confirmation of the performance, collection of additional safety data regarding expected adverse events and detection of potential unexpected adverse events associated with use of "Xanoftal Next" according to the Instructions for Use (IFU). Each subject, after signing the Informed Consent Form, will enter the screening and baseline phase (the 2 visits will coincide) during which baseline procedures will be completed. At baseline visit, the "Xanoftal Next" product will be administered to the enrolled subject. The patient will perform 2 on-site visits: V0 and V2/EOS. To monitor the safety, 1 phone contact is planned (V1) to check for potential adverse events and concomitant medications intake.
Dry eye disease (DED), also called keratoconjunctivitis sicca, is a common ocular condition characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface. Over the counter (OTC) artificial tears are typically the first line of dry eye treatment; they are meant to supplement the tears that cover the eye's surface. OTC products mimic the different layers of the tear film in order to maintain ocular hydration. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC or hypromellose) is a synthetic modification of the natural polymer, cellulose. It has been widely used in in ophthalmologic formulations such as eye drops and gels due to its solubility in water, biocompatibility, transparency and rheological properties. Eye drops containing HPMC are conventionally used to treat tear film disturbances including dry eye symptoms. For these reasons, an interventional, non-comparative, single-center Post Marketing Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study was planned to evaluate the performance and safety of "Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)-based eyedrops" used as intended to relieve dry eye symptoms. The objectives of the PMCF study are confirmation of the performance, collection of additional safety data regarding expected adverse events and detection of potential unexpected adverse events associated with use of "HPMC-based eyedrops" according to the Instructions for Use (IFU). "HPMC-based eyedrops" medical devices are ophthalmic solutions containing hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as key ingredient, a polymer able to relief eye discomfort thanks to its moisturizing, lubricating and muco-mimetic properties. HPMC can stabilize the tear film on the ocular surface by creating a protective, transparent and viscoelastic shield. Each subject, after signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF), will enter the screening and baseline phase (the 2 visits will coincide) during which baseline procedures will be completed. At baseline visit (V0), only one of the below reported "HPMC-based eyedrops" products will be administered to the enrolled subject. The patient will perform 2 on-site visits: V0 and V2/EOS. To monitor the safety, 1 phone contact is planned (V1) to check for potential adverse events and concomitant medications intake.
Dry eye disease (DED), also called keratoconjunctivitis sicca, is a common ocular condition characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface. The typical symptoms of DED include irritation, discomfort, blurred or fluctuating vision. Over the counter (OTC) artificial tears are typically the first line of dry eye treatment; they are meant to supplement the tears that cover the eye's surface. OTC products mimic the different layers of the tear film in order to maintain ocular hydration. Distilled waters of natural herbs such as Green Tea, Calendula, Chamomile, Hamamelis and Euphrasia are known for their soothing and refreshing properties. Thanks to the combined action of these natural elements, distilled waters-based eyedrops are particularly indicated to relieve eye dryness, irritation and redness of the eyes' mucosa caused by atmospheric agents, environmental factors, and/or use of contact lenses. "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" medical devices are ophthalmic solutions containing distilled waters able to relieve eye discomfort thanks to their soothing and refreshing action. For these reasons, an interventional, non-comparative, single-center Post Marketing Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study was planned to evaluate the performance and safety of "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" used as intended to relieve dry eye symptoms. The objectives of the PMCF study are confirmation of the performance, collection of additional safety data regarding expected adverse events and detection of potential unexpected adverse events associated with use of "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" according to the IFU. Each subject, after signing the Informed Consent Form, will enter the screening and baseline phase (the 2 visits will coincide) during which baseline procedures will be completed. At baseline visit (V0), one of the "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" products will be administered to the enrolled subject. The patient will perform 2 on site visits (V0 and V2/EOS). To monitor the safety, 1 phone contact is planned (V1) to check for potential adverse events and concomitant medications intake. The first administration and the intervals at which the treatment should be repeated, to be done as per Investigator judgment and according to the IFU, depend on various factors regarding the physiology of the patients (e.g. type of eye-tear film, anatomy, age), their lifestyle (e.g. use of computer, wearing of contact lenses).
