Active clinical trials for "Dry Eye Syndromes"

This will be a 12-month, multicenter, vehicle-controlled, double-masked, randomized Phase 3 study conducted at approximately 10 sites in the United States. All subjects enrolled will have dry eye disease (DED). The study will consist of a Baseline (Day 1) visit as well as visits at Day 14, Day 90, Day 180, Day 270, and Day 365 (Study Exit).

The study objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of cenegermin (rhNGF) ophthalmic solution at 20 mcg/mL concentration administered three times daily for 4 weeks in patients with severe Sjogren's dry eye disease.

The objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of OK-101 Ophthalmic Solution to placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye.

A Randomized, Masked (Evaluator), Controlled, Prospective Study Evaluating the Effectiveness and Safety of the Tixel® Medical Device, Versus LipiFlow® in the Treatment of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction

The purpose of this interventional study is to assess safety, patient tolerability, plug retention rate, and preliminary efficacy in improving the symptoms of Dry Eye Disease (DED) of EXP-TC tacrolimus releasing punctal plug. The main questions it aims to answer are: The safety of using EXP-TC plug following all study adverse events The number of patients with Adverse Events related to the us of EXP-LP plug The number of patients discontinuing the study due to plug discomfort The total patients with plugs remained during the 3-months study duration from plug insertion Exploratory: change from baseline in the study eye to follow-up visits in various Dryness clinical measurements. The change of measurements from baseline will also be compared between the study and fellow control eye (receiving artificial tears only, 0.15% sodium hyaluronate).

This will be a Phase 3, multicenter, vehicle-controlled, double-masked, randomized study conducted at approximately 20 sites in the United States. All subjects enrolled will have dry eye disease (DED). The study will consist of Screening (Day -14) and Baseline (Day 1) visits as well as visits at Day 7, Day 14, Day 28, and Day 90 (Study Exit).

The aim of this study is establish the reliability and clinical utility of microneuromas as identified via in vivo confocal microscopy as the diagnostic biomarker for NCP.

In recent years, many scholars have studied the ocular surface damage of patients with dry eye disease（DED）after FS-LASIK, but there has been a lack of comprehensive observation and research on the relationship and difference between dry eye （DE）patients with and without LASIK. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of ocular surface and cytokines after FS-LASIK, and further explain the pathogenesis of chronic dry eyes after FS-LASIK. In addition, we will also compare clinical characteristics and tear neuropeptide concentrations in patients with dry eye disease (DED) with and without chronic ocular pain following FS-LASIK, and to investigate correlations between ocular pain, clinical characteristics, and tear neuropeptide levels.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the preliminary safety and effectiveness of Pluripotent Stem Cell-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Exosome (PSC-MSC-Exo) Eye Drops in the treatment of dry eye diseases post refractive surgery and associated with blepharospasm

Dry eye disease is a common condition affecting millions worldwide and costing millions in healthcare due to reduced work productivity and quality of life. The disruption of oil glands in our eyelids known as Meibomian glands, which produce the oily layer of our tears to protect it from evaporating, is one of the most common contributors of dry eye disease. Much effort has been put into developing effective treatments for this condition as new treatments are constantly being introduced to the market. The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate how proven light-based therapies work in treating dry eye disease and oil gland disruption. These therapies include intense-pulsed light therapy (IPL) which uses a series of light flashes on the facial skin surface, and low-level light therapy (LLLT) which uses a mask with a series of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to warm the body cells. The main questions it aims to answer are: What are the short- and long-term changes associated with these treatments on the eyelids and surface of the eyes? Does LLLT alone work better than IPL+LLLT in treating dry eye disease and oil gland disruption? Participants with dry eye disease and oil gland disruption will receive four treatments with these light-based therapies each separated by two to three weeks apart, and followed up two to three weeks and three months after the final treatment session. One eye of the participant will receive intense pulsed light together with low-level light therapy, while the other eye will receive only low-level light therapy with a sham intense pulsed light treatment so that the researchers can compare if clinical signs and symptoms improve in one eye more than the other.
