Filter by:This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the efficacy of periorbital massage therapy in alleviating symptoms and improving clinical outcomes in patients diagnosed with dry eye disease.
In the first stage, to evaluate the safety of the topical medication produced by Sina Pharmaceuticals, this medication is experimentally tested on 10 volunteer patients. If no side effects occur, eligible patients are enrolled in the study after examination by a specialist. The second stage is a randomized, double-blind clinical trial, during which selected patients are randomly assigned to the control and intervention groups. For patients in the intervention group, in addition to standard treatment, including eyelid hygiene and the use of artificial tears, a topical drop of Atorvastatin (50 microM) will be administered, one drop eight times a day in both eyes. In the control group, a placebo will be used in the same manner. The patients will be unaware of their assigned group. Clinical examinations, including Schirmer's test, tear breakup time, fluorescein staining, and completion of the dry eye syndrome questionnaire and dry eye questionnaire, will be conducted before and after the intervention to assess the level of eye dryness.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about licaminlimab (OCS-02) in the treatment of dry eye disease. The main question it aims to answer is if licaminlimab ophthalmic suspension is more effective than vehicle in treating signs of dry eye disease.
To assess the efficacy and safety of OTX-DED for the short-term treatment of the symptoms of DED
The purpose of this interventional study is to assess safety, patient tolerability, plug retention rate, and preliminary efficacy in improving the symptoms of Dry Eye Disease (DED) of EXP-TC tacrolimus releasing punctal plug. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. The safety of using EXP-TC plug following all study adverse events 2. The number of patients with Adverse Events related to the us of EXP-LP plug 3. The number of patients discontinuing the study due to plug discomfort 4. The total patients with plugs remained during the 3-months study duration from plug insertion 5. Exploratory: change from baseline in the study eye to follow-up visits in various Dryness clinical measurements. The change of measurements from baseline will also be compared between the study and fellow control eye (receiving artificial tears only, 0.15% sodium hyaluronate).
The objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of YP-P10 Ophthalmic Solution to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye.
The study aims to determine the proportion of patients diagnosed with dry eye by the Asia Dry Eye Society (ADES) criteria, among patients diagnosed with dry eye disease under current hospital-based practice in Taiwan.
To demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of TearCare® procedures compared to Restasis® to treat the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease in adult patients.
PURPOSE: The investigators propose a new treatment for refractory Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) patients with plasma jet to remove the hyperkeratinization layer from the lid margin to unblock terminal gland ducts and use thermal stimulation to enhance meibum delivery. METHODS: A prospective, interventional clinical safety and efficacy trial with 25 patients from the Department of Ophthalmology at Escola Paulista de Medicina (UNIFESP) to determine the efficacy and safety of the treatment of refractory MGD patients with plasma jet on both upper and lower lids. Patients will be submitted to an ophthalmology workup with best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) (ETDRS chart) and dry eye questionnaires (DEQ-5 and OSDI). Bulbar redness, tear film meniscus height, noninvasive breakup time (NIKBUT), meibography under infrared light will be measured with Keratograph (Oculus®). Following, tear film osmolarity (i-PenTM), meibomian gland expression, and Marx line assessment. All exams were performed at the baseline, 30 days, and 90 days after the plasma jet application.
This is a post-market, european multicenter study. This is a randomized, cross-over, double blind study with competitive enrolment, aimed to enroll a total of 90 patients with a diagnosis of moderate dry eye disease (DED).
