View clinical trials related to Retinal Detachment.
Filter by:Retinal detachment is a condition with an estimated incidence of between 9.5 and 18.2 cases per 100,000 individuals. It is an ophthalmological emergency that threatens visual acuity and requires surgery. However, despite satisfactory post-operative anatomical results, vitreoretinal proliferation and photoreceptor death can still have a negative impact on visual prognosis. These complications are still not fully understood. A previous study carried out by the Eye, Nutrition and Cell Signalling team at the CSGA, comparing mouse models of retinal detachment with healthy control retinas, revealed an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines and a change in retinal lipid abundance in detached retinas. However, these results have yet to be confirmed in humans. Our main hypothesis is that the vitreous content of omega-3 PUFAs and proteins is altered during the onset of retinal detachment, since it reflects both intraocular inflammation and photoreceptor apoptosis. We therefore wish to demonstrate that the protein and PUFA contents of the vitreous humour are different between eyes with retinal detachment and eyes not affected by retinal detachment after macular surgery (epiretinal membrane or macular hole). We would like to show that the vitreous PUFA content is lower in the macular surgery group due to the absence of photoreceptor apoptosis and the absence of dehiscence causing communication between the subretinal space (photoreceptors whose membranes are very rich in PUFAs) and the vitreous space. We also hope to identify changes in the protein composition of vitreous fluid in patients with retinal detachment, with overexpression of proteins involved in inflammation pathways. In addition, we hypothesise that retinal omega-3 PUFA content is a factor influencing retino-vitreal proliferation and functional and anatomical recovery from retinal detachment. To this end, we will study the correlation between retinal PUFA-3 content and the clinical presentation and postoperative course of retinal detachment. Finally, with the aim of identifying a serum marker for the prognostic evaluation of retinal detachment, we will use as a candidate a biomarker of retinal omega-3 PUFA content that we have developed in an Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) model. We will analyse the correlation between this biomarker and levels of omega-3 PUFAs measured directly in the retina. To do this, we will analyse intraoperative samples of vitreous humour, sub-retinal fluid and retinal fluid from patients undergoing vitrectomy for retinal detachment in the Ophthalmology Department of the Dijon University Hospital. A group of control patients will consist of patients operated on by vitrectomy for macular surgery (epiretinal membrane or macular hole) for whom a vitreous humour sample will also be taken. Clinical information on the characteristics of the retinal detachment will be collected. During the consultation, the patient will be questioned about any history of dyslipidaemia and any current treatment, including the use of lipid-enriched food supplements. Post-operative follow-up with prospective collection of clinical and paraclinical data on anatomical and functional evolution will be carried out up to 6 months after the occurrence of retinal detachment. A blood sample will be taken to establish a lipid profile in all patients. We will thus gain a better understanding of the changes in lipid and protein content in the vitreous humour, sub-retinal fluid and retina, and the demonstration of a link between the initial presentation and the postoperative anatomical and functional evolution of retinal detachment. This will provide a better understanding of the lipid-dependent mechanisms linked to inflammation and photoreceptor degeneration during retinal detachment, and will ultimately make it possible to develop new therapeutic strategies to improve visual prognosis.
The study will investigate and compare the three techniques in drainage of subretinal fluid in patients with macula off RRD: namely using the original break, performing a posterior drainage retinotomy and using PFC with drainage through the original break or peripheral retinotomy regarding the presence of persistent sub-retnal fluid and related intra or postoperative complications
This study is indicated for patients with extended rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) (≥ 2 quadrants) with macula OFF lasting 7 days or less, pseudophakic or aphakic, and scheduled to undergo surgical intervention with vitrectomy and gas tamponade in one of the ophthalmology departments participating in the study. The main objective is to assess the effectiveness of UDCA in visual acuity recovery at 3 months (i.e., the difference between preoperative visual acuity and visual acuity 3 months after surgery) in pseudophakic or aphakic patients who have undergone successful surgical intervention (reattachment of the retina) through vitrectomy and gas tamponade following rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). 120 patients will be enrolled and randomized in two groups: - the experimental arm "UDCA Group," with oral administration of ursodeoxycholic acid (Ursolvan®) - the control group "Placebo Group," with oral administration of the placebo.
To assess the clinical features and the surgical outcomes of RD repair surgery of the fellow eye in bilateral retinal detachments
This clinical trial, involving participants with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, aims to compare Methotrexate Usage Techniques in preventing Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy (PVR) after vitrectomy. The study will evaluate the development of PVR, retinal detachment recurrence, and improvement in visual acuity. Participants will undergo retinal detachment surgery using the vitrectomy technique and will be divided into two groups. One group will receive Methotrexate infusion during surgery, while the other will receive repeated Methotrexate injections post-surgery. The researcher will analyze and compare outcomes between the two groups.
Retinal detachment (RD) resulting from the macular hole (MH), also known as MH-induced RD (MHRD), most commonly occurs in eyes with high myopia and results in irreversible visual disorders. Although ILM peeling for MHRD reportedly achieves a high retinal reattachment rate that ranges from 70% to 100%, the MH closure rate is relatively low, ranging from 10% to 70%.
EVALUATION OF 5-FLOUROURACIL AND LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT HEPARIN INTRAOPERATIVE INFUSION IN PREVENTING PROLIFERATIVE VITREORETINOPATHY IN HIGH RISK PEDIATRIC RHEGMATOGENOUS RETINAL DETACHMENT
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether an oral medication (lamivudine) enters the eye and reduces blood markers of inflammation in people who undergo retinal detachment surgery (pars plana vitrectomy). Participants will take the study medication or placebo, and the researchers will measure blood markers of inflammation before and after surgery. The researchers will also measure the amount of medication in the blood and fluid inside the participant's eye (which is collected during surgery).
This study has two main objectives. The first objective is to study the pharmacokinetics of topical netarsudil administration in the posterior segment of the eye, where netarsudil must exert its effect in order to prevent formation of tractional membranes. The second objective is to assess the safety profile of topical netarsudil in the pre- and post-operative periods. A secondary objective of the study is to begin to assess signs of efficacy in preventing formation of tractional membranes post-operatively.
