Active clinical trials for "Epiretinal Membrane"

The aim of this study is to test the efficacy of the combination of dye Lutein, Zeaxanthin and brilliant blue to stain the internal limiting membrane as well as the epiretinal membranes during the Vitrectomy surgery.

This phase I trial will assess primarily the safety and secondarily anti-inflammatory effect of Episcleral Dexamethasone in patients suffering from macular edema and other disorders of the retina, choroid and vitreous.

Report efficiency and clinical outcomes using 25-gauge, bevel-tip, 20000 cut per minute vitrectomy probe among eyes with various vitreo-retinal diseases

The aim of this research is to assess current care by studying macular function using microperimetry and by then comparing visual acuity results with OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) data. The examinations performed are those usually done in the follow-up of epiretinal membrane surgery, apart from microperimetry which is an examination of the central visual field. Patients who undergo ERM surgery usually have a follow-up examination at 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after the surgery. The consultation includes an assessment of visual acuity, a fundus examination an SD-OCT of the retina. The present protocol will require no additional visits. The microperimetry will be done in addition to the usual follow-up examinations after ERM surgery.

To determine if an intravitreal sustained release dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex®) injected at the conclusion of surgery in patients undergoing vitrectomy and membrane peeling for idiopathic epiretinal membranes is safe and effective to decrease the macular edema, as demonstrated by a gain in vision and decreased in retinal thickness and volume.

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of oral sedation to intravenous sedation with anesthesiology support and monitoring.

Study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of double staining with brilliant blue G 0.025% as an adjuvant to macular surgery. Patients undergoing surgery for macular hole or epiretinal membrane will be included. Safety will be evaluated by optic coherence tomography, pattern reversal electroretinogram and multifocal electroretinogram.

This study compares the anatomical and visual outcomes of patients with idiopathic epiretinal membrane(ERM) treated by vitrectomy and membrane peeling with or without subtenon triamcinolone acetonide injection

In this prospective randomized controlled double blind pilot clinical study, we aim to assess whether administration of a topical corticosteroid would attenuate epiretinal membrane formation following development of retinal tears treated with laser retionpexy.

31 patients were included in the study,15 cases with ERM in silicone filled eyes and 16 eyes with idiopathic ERM
