Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether artificial tears are safe and effective in the treatment of Dry Eye Syndrome.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of cyclosporine ophthalmic solution vs. other non-prescription treatments in patients with dry eye disease. Patient and physician assessments completed at baseline, at each follow-up visit (follow-up visits are variable as per physician discretion) and at final follow-up visit.
This study is an exploratory trial evaluating the tear film break-up time after a single eye drop instillation of over-the-counter artificial tears. The primary hypothesis is that tear film break up time will be greater for test than control eye.
To investigate the long-term efficacy and safety of FK506 ophthalmic suspension in patients with vernal keratoconjunctivitis
To investigate the efficacy and safety of FK506 ophthalmic suspension on eye symptoms in patients with vernal keratoconjunctivitis
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of acupuncture in the treatment of moderate to severe dry eye by replicating the study design of the previous protocol and to see the study through to its completion.
This interventional study aims to evaluate the efficacy of oral administration of Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG in preventing relapses of ocular inflammation in Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) patients.
The primary purpose of the study is to determine whether B-cell depletion with Rituximab has an effect on the oral, ocular and general disease manifestations in patients with primary Sjögren´s syndrome, that is, an effect on the symptoms of oral and ocular dryness, improvement of the glandular function and a beneficial effect on the general symptoms such as fatigue. The secondary purpose of the study is the investigate the underlying autoimmune and pathophysiological mechanisms in Sjögren´s syndrome.
This interventional study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Cyclosporine eye drop treatment in preventing relapses of Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) and in treating the acute phases of the disease.
Purpose: To develop a screening metric by examining both the characteristics of the preoperative tear film and the intracellular signaling pathways of conjunctival goblet cells in order to determine if there are certain characteristics which might predict those patients who will experience serious dry eye symptoms and complications after refractive surgery. Research Design: This study is a twelve-month prospective non-randomized investigation. Methodology: In conjunction with psychometric questionnaires and various measures of tear film quality (e.g. Schirmer's test, tear break up time, etc), impression cytology will be used to assess the intracellular signaling pathways of conjunctival goblet cells and to determine if alterations in this pathway exist. Alterations in this pathway would result in a reduced response by the mucin secreting conjunctival goblet cells thereby promoting the development of dry eye after refractive surgery.
