Filter by:The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness (Intra-Ocular Pressure lowering) and safety of Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) in ethnic Chinese subjects with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension.
Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Intraocular pressure (IOP) remains the only modifiable risk factor for glaucoma. Without sufficient IOP lowering therapy, glaucoma induces retinal ganglion cell death and visual field loss. Pattern electroretinography (pERG) measurements directly correlate with retinal ganglion cell (RGC) signaling, providing an objective, repeatable, and non-invasive assessment of RGC function. The purpose of the study is to investigate the pERG changes associated with acute IOP reduction using the Mercury™ Multi-Pressure Dial (MPD). 10 patients will be enrolled. These subjects will have a best corrected visual acuity of 20/40 or better in both eyes and an established diagnosis of one of either mild/moderate OAG (open-angle glaucoma), OHT (ocular hypertension), or glaucoma suspect. Both eyes will be enrolled in the study. The study eye will receive a standardized 10 mmHg decrease in periorbital pressure via the Mercury™ Multi-Pressure Dial (MPD), and the fellow/control eye will receive no (zero) pressure application. Total google wear time will be 4.5 hours. Serial pERG measurements will be taken before, immediately after, and 2 hours after negative pressure application.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the effect of latanoprostene bunod (LBN) ophthalmic solution 0.024% (a single dose and 7 days of once daily [QD] dosing) on 2 aspects of aqueous humor (AqH) dynamics (episcleral venous pressure [EVP] and outflow facility) in participants with ocular hypertension (OHT).
The purpose of this research study is to compare the effect of Netarsudil and Timolol on eye pressure and blood vessels of the back of the eye.
Combined cataract + trabectome surgery is a surgery designed to help lower the intraocular pressure (pressure in the eye) and hopefully reduce the need for topical drops, progression of glaucoma, and/or further glaucoma surgeries. The purpose of this study is to assess whether using pilocarpine, a medication which is FDA approved to induce miosis, (in other words cause the pupil to constrict or become smaller) provides additional benefit to the success of Trabectome and cataract surgery.
To evaluate the efficacy of once daily dosing with SPARC's novel ophthalmic formulation of bimatoprost compared with Lumigan 0.01% in subjects with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
The purpose of our study is to determine the effect of prophylactic treatment with brimonidine/timolol fixed combination (Combigan®, Allergan; Dublin, IRL) or placebo therapy (Refresh tears®, Allergan; Dublin, IRL) on long-term IOP measurements in patients receiving serial intravitreal injection of 0.5 mg ranibizumab (0.05 mL) with six months follow-up. Intraocular pressure measurements will be correlated with changes on ancillary testing (Humphrey 24-2 visual field testing and optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the optic nerve head (ONH). Our study would be the first large, prospective, randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial to examine the relationship between anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy and sustained ocular hypertension.
This study is designed with the intention to further elucidate the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on intraocular pressure (IOP) and signs/symptoms of dry eye. Prior studies have shown statistically significant lowering of IOP with use of omega-3 fatty acids but have only been performed in animal models. This study will be the first to attempt replication in human models. A limited number of studies have shown an increase in tear production/volume as well as a decrease in the subjective symptoms of dry eye, but more studies are needed to better define these effects. Better understanding of the effects of this supplement on intraocular pressure and dry eye will contribute to the expanding knowledge about the pathophysiology of glaucoma/ocular hypertension and dry eye syndrome and potentially lead to further studies about new potential treatment options for these conditions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential secondary beneficial effect of prostaglandin analogues (PA) treatment in thyroid eye disease (TED) patients. This study aims to determine if PA would change the course of the orbitopathy in TED patients by altering the progression of the common features of TED, including fatty hypertrophy, proptosis, eyelid retraction and optic nerve compression. The eyes with thyroid eye disease and elevated intraocular pressure will be randomised to the PA treatment and the other eye will serve as a control eye and will be treated with Timolol.
This study is a double-masked, randomized, parallel group study in patients with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The aim of this study is to verify the efficacy of the fixed combination of Latanoprost 50 mcg / mL / brinzolamide 10mg/ml eye drops compared to Latanoprost 50μg/mL eye drops in reducing IOP
