Reduction of elevated pressure in the eye (Intraocular pressure, or 'IOP') with eye drop medications has been shown to be effective in delaying or preventing the progression of glaucoma, and it is the only proven method for reducing the risk of glaucomatous visual field loss. This study is being conducted to determine how well DE-126 ophthalmic solution works (efficacy) in safely lowering IOP when dosed as topical eyedrops. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of DE-126, ophthalmic solution in subjects with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) or Ocular Hypertension (OHT). The IOP will be measured at 3 different times throughout the day, over 4 total visits during a 3-month treatment period (with up to 4 extra weeks observation if the patient must stop taking current eye drops to lower IOP). Safety assessments will be done throughout the study, including ocular signs and symptoms, and vital signs. While the most important time-point to measure IOP in this study and evaluate efficacy will be at the final study visit (month 3), IOP values will also be evaluated at other visits throughout the 3-month treatment period.
The objective of this study was to investigate the improving effect of corneal disorder in primary open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension patients, when switched from the 0.005% latanoprost ophthalmic solution (one drop at a time, once daily) to the 0.0015% tafluprost ophthalmic solution (one drop at a time, once daily). Efficacy also was investigated.
Blindness can be caused by many ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, age-related macular degeneration, pathologic myopia and glaucoma. Without timely diagnosis and adequate medical intervention, the visual impairment can become a great burden on individuals as well as the society. It is estimated that China has 110 million patients under the attack of diabetes, 180 million patients with hypertension, 120 million patients suffering from high myopia and 200 million people over 60 years old, which suggest a huge population at the risk of blindness. Despite of this crisis in public health, our society has no more than 3,000 ophthalmologists majoring in fundus oculi disease currently. As most of them assembling in metropolitan cities, health system in this field is frail in primary hospitals. Owing to this unreasonable distribution of medical resources, providing medical service to hundreds of millions of potential patients threatened with blindness is almost impossible. To solve this problem, this software (MCS) was developed as a computer-aided diagnosis to help junior ophthalmologists to detect 13 major retina diseases from color fundus photographs. This study has been designed to validate the safety and efficiency of this device.
To determine the effect of foot reflexology in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients and the effect of a shoe insert to perform continuous foot reflexology in ocular hypertensive (OHTN) patients.
This study is conducted to document the effect of switching from preserved prostaglandin analogues monotherapy to preservative free tafluprost 0.0015%. The endpoints analyzed are side effect improvement in these patients.
A Phase 3 Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Netarsudil Ophthalmic Solution 0.02% QD to Ripasudil Hydrochloride Hydrate Ophthalmic Solution 0.4% BID, for Treatment of Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension Over A 4-Week Period.
The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NCX 470 Ophthalmic Solution in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. In the adaptive dose selection phase of the trial, subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of two doses of NCX 470 (0.065% or 0.1%) or to latanoprost 0.005%. Following the selection of one dose of NCX 470, subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the chosen dose of NCX 470 or to latanoprost 0.005%.
This is a phase 2, double masked, randomized, multi-center, parallel-group, 28-day study assessing the safety, tolerability and ocular hypotensive efficacy of AKB-9778 Ophthalmic Solution 4.0% administered once (AM) or twice (AM & PM) daily when used as an adjunctive therapy to latanoprost ophthalmic solution 0.005% once daily (PM) in subjects with elevated IOP due to OAG or OHT.
Rhopressa effectively lowers intra-ocular pressure by improving conventional outflow and decreasing episcleral venous pressure. While this may result in improved episcleral venous flow, current methods to quantify episcleral blood flow in vivo are rudimentary and unable to accurately and precisely determine flow. Proof that Rhopressa effectively increases episcleral venous flow would differentiate it from other medications. Furthermore, this evidence could galvanize interest in the use of Rhopressa after popular Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) procedures. In future studies, MIGS procedures could be used to improve the proximal outflow pathway, and Rhopressa to enhance distal outflow. Specific Aim: To determine the effect of Rhopressa on episcleral venous outflow and retinal blood flow in a cohort of treatment-naïve ocular hypertensive and glaucoma suspect patients. Hypothesis: Rhopressa increases episcleral venous flow and retinal blood flow from baseline at both 1 hour and 1 week after initiation of therapy.
