Filter by: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
EYE103-101 is a 2-part study assessing safety and preliminary efficacy of EYE103 in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) given as monotherapy or neovascular macular degeneration (NVAMD) given in combination with anti-VEGF. In the first part, termed the multiple ascending dose (MAD) portion of study, the safety of EYE103 will be assessed at escalating doses. Approximately 12 participants will be entered in this part of the study. In the second part of the study, called the dose finding part two doses of EYE103 will be selected and their effectiveness will be compared. Approximately 80 participants will be entered in this part of the study.
This clinical trial aims to test the safety and feasibility of using a non-invasive ultrasound device to stimulate retinal nerve cells and restore vision in patients with age-related macular degeneration. Previous studies have shown that artificial stimulation, such as electric and optic stimulations, can partially restore vision, but these methods are invasive and pose surgical risks. The study aims to develop a non-invasive method for retinal stimulation. The investigators will follow the FDA guidelines to limit the ultrasound power and adhere to all clinical trial regulations to ensure all participants' safety. The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: - Is using high-frequency ultrasound safe using a wearable device for localized retinal neural activity stimulation? - Does the stimulation through the device restore vision in patients with age-related macular degeneration? Participants in this study will be asked to undergo Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) scanning before and after the ultrasound stimulation to evaluate the device's safety. Then, they will receive five stimulation-rest cycles and complete a questionnaire to report what they see and how they feel during the device's operation.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD), is a debilitating eye disease that causes a loss of central vision. The prevalence of AMD increases exponentially with age and causes a significant impact through both medical expenses and the social and economic costs associated with vision loss. AMD is the global leading cause of blindness among people over the age of 60. Detection of this eye disease at early stages coupled with prompt treatment can prevent vision loss; however, modern diagnosis methods are ineffective at diagnosis of AMD before vision loss occurs. While a range of available treatment options has been effective at slowing vision loss due to AMD, no treatment exists which can recover lost vision. The investigators propose to apply tools developed in quantum information science to diagnose AMD before vision has been affected, drastically improving health outcomes for patients with AMD.
Multi-center, open-label, two-part safety assessment following administration of single ascending doses and repeat administration of the HTD of OCU-10-C-110 for Injection in the study eye of participants with nAMD
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.
Home optical coherence tomography- guided treatment versus treat and extend for the management of neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
In neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), the macula, or the part of the eye that provides the clear, detailed central vision, is being affected by abnormal blood vessel growth and leakage. This leakage affects the vision over time and can lead to severe blurriness or blinding. EXG102-031 was made to block the extra vessel formation which would lead to less leakage affecting the vision. Before EXG102-031 can be tested for its efficacy (if it makes vision better), it must be tested to see if it is safely tolerated to confirm it can continue to be studied in more patients with nAMD.
This is a Phase 2, prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled 104-week study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of orally delivered CT1812 compared to placebo in participants with GA associated with dry AMD.
