About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Corneal Neovascularization

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 18 years of age or older
  • With active inflammation or infection causing vascularization and possibly melting of the cornea, or vessels extending into the cornea causing lipid deposition, or vascularization that could significantly increase the risk of rejection of a current or planned corneal transplant, or vessels that continue to extend into the cornea despite topical treatment with corticosteroids.
  • Signed written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known sensitivity to treatment medications
  • Current condition that in the investigator's opinion could compromise safety or data integrity.
  • Pregnancy (including plan to become pregnant) or lactation during the course of the study

Arm Label

30 minute photoactivation

10 minute photoactivation

Arm Description

photoactivation of riboflavin 0.1% using 365-nm UV light, 3mW/cm2 for 30 minutes

photoactivation of riboflavin 0.1% using 365-nm UV light, 9mW/cm2 for 10 minutes

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

corneal neovascularization as a proportion of the total corneal area
the cornea will be photographed and morphometric image analysis software will be used to measure corneal neovascularization as a proportion of the total corneal area. The proportion measured at baseline will be compared with the proportion measured at 6 months after treatment.
