Filter by:This study will include patients who will undergo PRK in both eyes, for each patient each eye will be randomly allocated to one of 2 procedures: topography-guided ablation in one eye (group I) and Q-factor customized ablation in the other eye (group II). Alcon/Wavelight Light Laser Technolo¬gie (GmbH, Erlangen, Germany) will be used for photoablation. The wavelight Topolyzer (Wavelight AG, Erlan¬gen, Germany)and CSO Sirius scheimpflug camera combined with Placido corneal topography (CSO, Florence,Italy) will be used before and 1, 3 and 6 months after PRK. Refrac¬tive visual outcomes and corneal aberration changes will be compared between the two treatment modalities.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the contact lens care product Oté Sensation in a representative population of soft contact lens wearers. For comparison, a widely used FDA approved soft lens multipurpose solution will be used as a control. This control product has been tested in previous clinical trials.
the investigator will evaluate the change in endothelial cell count in eyes implanted with the iris-claw phakic Artisan lens for treatment of moderate to high myopia using specular microscopy
Myopia is a common disease of the eye with increasing prevalence in the Western World as well as in South East Asia where 60-90% of the children are affected. High myopia is associated with an increasing risk of sight threatening complications such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, macular choroidal degeneration and myopic choroidal neovascularization. In myopia the eye is elongated compared to an emmetropic eye. If the elongation of the eye can be controlled the progression of myopia can be controlled. Asian studies have shown reduction in axial length growth by 36-46% in children using orthokeratology contact lenses (OKL). OKL are custom fit, form stable lenses. During sleep the cornea is reshaped creating an emmetropic vision during the day, so no glasses or contact lenses are needed. Twin and family studies have shown a high heritability for the development of myopia, and more than 40 genetic loci have been identified indicating that the effect of OKL in Asian children might not be the same in North European children which is why we want to execute a similar study on North European children. Purpose: 1. Investigate if nightly wear of OKL reduces the progression of childhood myopia (change in axial length) in Danish children when compared to a control group using monofocal glasses. 2. Investigate the safety (Efron score) of OKL. 3. Investigate children's quality of life impact of refractive correction (questionnaire) using OKL compared to glasses. 4. Identify possible predictors for progression of myopia (AC/A ratio, peripheral defocus and higher order aberrations). Method: A randomized controlled 18 months prospective 1:1 study of a group of Danish children. 60 children will be included; 30 in each group. The participants will undergo several measurements reflecting the anatomy and function of the eye at baseline, 6, 12 and 18 month to evaluate the effect.
A cohort study on incidence and progression of myopia in a group of medical students
This study aims to compare the short-term clinical performance of the three contact lenses (Methafilcon A IV, Ocufilcon B 1-day and Omafilcon A 1-day daily disposable).
The purpose of this study is to validate the clinical performance of a new contact lens design when worn over a period of 6 hours compared to nelfilcon A (control).
Patients who underwent presbyopic correction with bilateral trifocal intraocular lenses implantation are supposed to have sufficient uncorrected vision capacity for activities of daily living (ADLs) that require near vision acuity (NV), (ie. book reading). However, it is known that light intensity and temperature has a great impact on near vision capacity. Primary objective of this study is to identify the optimal task lighting conditions (in terms of light intensity and temperature) for ADLs that demand near vision acuity for a sample of patients who underwent presbyopic correction with bilateral trifocal intraocular lenses implantation
The objective of the study is to determine if habitual or adapted contact lens wearers of Omafilcon A can be confidently refit into Somofilcon A lenses and be successful after one week of daily wear. The primary outcome variables for this study are: - Investigator responses to refit questions; - Lens fit.
To compare the outcomes of a toric Implantable Collamer Lens (ICL) and a spherical Implantable Collamer Lens combined with astigmatic keratotomy (AK) in the correction of high myopic astigmatism.
