Filter by:Neovascular glaucoma is a common and severe type of secondary closed-angle glaucoma. Topical treatments have variable effects and unfortunately often require surgery to control IOP. Although Glaucoma Drainage Device (GDD) such as Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) are a surgical choice in these patients, their effectiveness decreases over time. One of the main causes of failure in AGV surgery is the formation of scar tissue and fibrosis around the shunt plate. So, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of using MMC Intraoperative and 5FU Postoperative with AGV surgery in neovascular glaucoma patients according to a specific protocol, on the incidence of Hypertensive Phase (HP) and surgical success rate.
With the increasing incidence of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), subsequent neovascular glaucoma (NVG) has become one of the main causes of blindness in PDR patients, and the intraocular pressure of PDR patients with NVG is often stubborn. For these patients, not only is the effect of drugs in lowering intraocular pressure poor, but the results of surgery are often unsatisfactory. Because of its poor prognosis, clinical research for better strategy is of great significance in the current situation. At present, for such patients, a combination of effective control of intraocular pressure and treatment of the primary disease is often used. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical effects of preoperative with/without intraoperative anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drug therapy combined with pars plana vitrectomy (PPV), pan-retinal photocoagulation (PRP), and pressure-reducing valve implantation in patients with NVG secondary to PDR. Furthermore, the changes of neurotrophic factors in the vitreous humor before and after anti-VEGF treatment will be explored.
Purpose: To investigate intravitreal aflibercept (IVA) injection as an adjunctive treatment to trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (TMC) and panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) for neovascular glaucoma (NVG). Setting: Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand Study design: Prospective interventional case series Methods: PRP and IVA (2 mg/0.05 ml) injection were given, and TMC was performed within 2 weeks after IVA. Additional PRP, laser suture lysis, subconjunctival 5-fluorouracil injection, and bleb needling were performed after TMC if indicated. Best-collected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), surgical complications, and number of anti-glaucoma medications were collected.
The clinical trial is aimed to evaluate the anti-neovascular effect of KDR2-2 suspension eyedrop in the treatment of neovascular glaucoma. Fourty subjects would receive either 0.96 or 3.84 mg/per day/eye, in a QID fashion, ×7 days (those without complications can continue to 28 days). The anti-neovascular effect of KDR2-2 on iris neovascularization would be evaluated at day 1, day 7, day 14, day 28 after KDR2-2 usage.
This is a prospective, observational, multi-center and post-authorization safety study that includes patients with a diagnosis of Neovascular Glaucoma. The investigator will have made the decision to use Eylea for treatment. The objective of this study is to assess safety and effectiveness of Eylea using in real clinical practice. Patients will be followed for a time period of 6 months from start of Eylea treatment or until it is no longer possible (e.g. lost to follow-up). In total, 480 patients will be recruited. For each patient, data are collected as defined in the electronic case report form (eCRF) at the initial visit, follow-up visit and final visit, either by routine clinical visits (as per investigators routine practice).
The neovascular glaucoma (NVG) is a refractory type of secondary glaucoma and often lead to frustrated treatment and blindness. It has been confirmed high levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in NVG. Conbercept is an anti-VEGF agent,its role in regression of other neovascular disorders such as wet-type age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy has been described. Investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intracameral and intravitreal injection of conbercept for the treatment of NVG.
A prospective, randomised, placebo-controlled, double-masked, three-armed multi-centre phase II/III trial for the Study of a Topical Treatment of Ischaemic Central Retinal Vein Occlusion to Prevent Neovascular Glaucoma - the STRONG Study
This study will determine the effectiveness of Mitomycin-C use in the glaucoma surgery Ahmed valve implantation. Approximately 100 patients will be enrolled, with half receiving the Mitomycin-C treatment and the other half receiving placebo treatment.
Objective: Prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Ahmed Glaucoma Drainage Device, model M4 compared with the model S2. Method: Mexican patients with Neovascular Glaucoma will be randomly included for each group (M4 and S2). They will be operated using conventional techniques and creating a sub-episcleral tunnel to place the valve's tube in the anterior chamber. They will be monitoring for one year and the results will be evaluated with respect to a postoperative reduction in pressure, changes in visual acuity, the need for drugs and complications, in addition to the demographic characteristics of each group.
Clinical Retina research studies often collect aqueous samples in hopes of estimating levels of drug or cytokines in the vitreous. Little is known about how well vitreous and aqueous correlate. This study will collect vitreous and aqueous samples at the same time to evaluate and compare drug and cytokine levels. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the molecular concentration of growth factors, cytokines and chemokines in human aqueous humor and vitreous samples collected from individuals undergoing pars plana vitrectomy for tractional retinal detachment secondary to proliferative diabetic retinopathy, exudative or tractional retinal detachment secondary to macular degeneration, macular hole or neovascular glaucoma.
