Filter by:The purpose of the study is to evaluate the neuroprotective efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen for the treatment in patients with optic neuropathy.
assessing the role of neuromuscular ultrasound in optic nerve involvement in systemic lupus patients.
The impact of glaucomatous optic neuropathy on the daily life of patients is poorly characterized and does not benefit from standardized tests. The development and validation of new tests could be used to assess the efficacy of innovative treatments for visually impaired patients and/or optimize management strategies.
Intraocular tamponade used in vitrectomy operations may affects retinal function in various mechanisms.
This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of subcutaneous erythropoietin in the management of late stage optic neuropathy.
1. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the nGoggle's accuracy and repeatability in detecting visual function loss. In addition, the ability to stage glaucomatous damage and investigate the relationship between nGoggle metrics and neural damage in glaucoma will also be evaluated. 2. Longitudinal study, including 200 patients with: glaucoma, suspected of having glaucoma, nonglaucomatous optic neuropathies, AMD, retinal degenerations, other diseases involving the visual pathways, besides healthy controls. Subjects will perform standard ophthalmological exams, and the following research tests: electroencephalogram, visual evoked potentials, and questionnaires. 3. Statistical analyses will be performed by the PI using the software Stata, MATLAB, and MPLUS. Risks are low, consisting of some discomfort, fatigue, dizziness or motion sickness.
The objective of this trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of CNM-Au8 as a remyelinating treatment for vision-impairing MS lesions in participants who have chronic vision impairment as a result of Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis. The primary endpoint is to assess the efficacy and safety of CNM-Au8 as a remyelinating therapy in patients with stable RMS. The secondary endpoint is Change in Functional Composite Responder Analysis Score from Baseline to Week 24.
The purpose of this research study is to better understand the impact of visual impairment caused by different eye diseases on the ability to perform daily activities and compare it to that in patients without eye diseases.
Biotinidase is an enzyme that recycles biotin, a water-soluble vitamin essential as a coenzyme for four carboxylases that are involved in gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis, and in the catabolism of several branch-chain amino acids. Biotinidase deficiency (BD) is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder. Patients with profound BD (<10% of mean normal serum biotinidase activity) presents, usually during early childhood, with neurological (seizures, hypotonia, ataxia, developmental delay, vision problems, and/or hearing loss) and non-neurological findings (metabolic acidosis, respiratory difficulties, alopecia and/or skin rash) that may progress to coma or death if untreated. Three cases of adult-onset biotinidase deficiency with reversible optic neuropathy have recently been described in France, where there is no neonatal screening of BP. Once treated with Biotin, patients' vision was fully restored. This study aims to assess the prevalence of BP among a population of patients with idiopathic optic neuropathy, and to assess the efficacy of Biotin supplementation on visual impairment in these patients.
This study will evaluate the use of autologous bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSC) for the treatment of retinal and optic nerve damage or disease.
