Filter by:This study is open to adults with geographic atrophy, an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration. People can join the study if they are at least 50 years old. The purpose of this study is to find out how well different doses of a medicine called BI 771716 are tolerated. This study has 2 parts. Part 1 of the study takes about 3 months. In this part, participants receive 1 injection of BI 771716 directly into one of the eyes affected by geographic atrophy. Part 2 of the study takes about 4 months. In this part, participants receive 2 injections of BI 771716 directly into the eye. There are 4 weeks between the first and the second injection. In this study, BI 771716 is given to humans for the first time. The doctors compare how well participants tolerate the different doses of BI 771716. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.
To evaluate the activity of neovascular macula degeneretion as assessed by SD-OCTand OCT-A using a split-person study design and deep-learning quantification.
Aim Physiological changes in intraocular pressure as well as in the cornea and macula may occur during pregnancy. In the literature, there are limited data on ocular findings in hyperemesis gravidarum. Therefore, we have decided to investigate the effect of hyperemesis gravidarum on macular thickness, corneal thickness and intraocular pressure (IOP).
The aim of this study is to investigate the early changes in macular thickness, corneal thickness and intraocular pressure in young women undergoing surgical menopause. Methods: Eye findings of 30 surgical menopausal (Postoperative 3-6 months) and 48 natural menopause and 22 healty women (control) were evaluated using OCT. Women with no known eye disease, no chronic disease (Diabetes Mellitus, Cardiac Disease any Autoimmune disease) and no migraine in addition to non smokers were included in the study. Women using any hormone and obese women ( BMI >25 kg/m2) were excluded. Macular and corneal thickness and intraocular pressure (IOP) were measured in both eyes of the women
Patients who develop macular diseases have several clinical complications,such as central vision loss, the central scotoma of the visual field, the decrease of reading speed and fixation stability. At present, there is still no satisfactory effect in the prevention and treatment of advanced macular disease. A new rehabitation strategy named microperimetric biofeedback training has been shown to be effective in improving patients' visual appearance, but there is no consensus regarding the optimal methodology and standard of practice. Therefore, we designed a prospective clinical study to verify the effectiveness of MBFT and to determine an optimal plan.
Myopia has become a global public health issue. Myopia affects the psychological health of children and adolescents and poses a financial burden. Therefore, early detection and prediction of children at a high risk of myopia development and progression are critical for precise and effective interventions. In this study, we developed a deep learning system DeepMyopia, based on fundus images with the following objectives: 1) to predict myopia onset and progression; 2) To detect myopic macular degeneration for AI-assisted diagnosis; 3) To predict the development of myopic macular degeneration; 4) evaluate its cost-effectiveness.
This non-interventional, retrospective, observational, noncomparative, non-randomized, single-arm, multi-centre study included patients (≥50 years) diagnosed with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) in at least 1 eye. Anonymized data of patients treated with brolucizumab intravitreal injection (IVI) who had received the first dose of brolucizumab between 01 October 2020 and 31 March 2021 was collected. Patients could either be treatment-naïve or previously treated with single or a combination of other IVI of anti-vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs). The primary outcome measure was the change in fluid levels (intra-retinal fluid [IRF], sub-retinal fluid [SRF], and pigment epithelial detachment [PED]) from baseline to Month 3. Secondary outcome measures included change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central retinal thickness (CRT), number of brolucizumab injections, and safety (number of adverse events [AEs]). Descriptive statistics were tabulated for the demographic and clinical characteristics as well as outcome variables.
Background and Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of cooled versus room temperature artificial tears in reducing post intravitreal injection (IVI) ocular discomfort. Patients and Methods: Patients receiving IVI were randomized to either cooled or room temperature tears intervention groups. Both groups rated their ocular discomfort following IVI before intervention and again after administration of cooled or room temperature tears.
The objectives of this investigation are: - evaluate the results of rehabilitation treatment using photostimulation with a structured stimulus in two different samples of low vision subjects with central vision loss who will be subjected to biofeedback at the MP3 microperimeter with different timing; - compare the effectiveness of the rehabilitation treatments in the two groups to provide useful indications for proposing standardisation of the rehabilitation pathway focusing on photostimulation in subjects with central vision loss.
patients with maculopathy reported in low vision clinic are tested for prismatic glasses for near vision. The pre and post visual acuity was recorded.
