Active clinical trials for "Dry Eye Syndromes"

The VITamin D and OmegA-3 Trial (VITAL; NCT 01169259) is a randomized clinical trial in 25,875 U.S. men and women investigating whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (2000 IU) or omega-3 fatty acids (Omacor fish oil, 1 gram) reduces the risk of developing cancer, heart disease, and stroke in people who do not have a prior history of these illnesses. This ancillary study is being conducted among participants in VITAL and will examine whether omega-3 fatty acids or vitamin D3, compared to placebo, reduce the incidence and/or progression of dry eye disease.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the possible effect of hinge location on corneal sensation and dry eye syndrome after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).

The effect of artificial tears on tear osmolarity

In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) is a sensitive imaging tool for detecting dry eye-associated subclinical inflammation. Studies have previously shown that IVCM provides an in vivo metric to measure inflammatory changes in the central cornea. The objective of the current study is to assess inflammatory response changes in the peripheral cornea and the conjunctiva by analyzing epithelial immune cell density and morphology in these areas and then correlating the IVCM findings to clinical signs and symptoms to establish novel objective imaging biomarkers.

The investigators aim to assess the effect of blepharoplasty with or without muller muscle resection on the symptoms of dry eye syndrome. this will be an observational study in which patients undergoing the aforementioned surgeries will be followed up and monitored for dry eye symptoms.

Clinical trial for prevention, randomized controlled, parallel, double-blind, with three arms, which purpose is verify the nursing interventions (artificial tear gel and liquid artificial tears)effects to prevent dry eye in adult patients admitted in ICU.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate acute tear production as measured by tear meniscus height (TMH) captured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) after single use of the Oculeve Intranasal Neurostimulator (OIN) in participants with dry eye.

The purpose of this study is to compare acute tear production produced by the Oculeve Intranasal Lacrimal Neurostimulator with two control devices in participants with aqueous tear deficiency.

Primary Purpose: To compare the efficacy in treating dry eye syndrome in contact lens wearers or computer users of Tears Again® versus Opticol® versus Optive® Secondary Purpose: Subjective evaluation of symptomatology Evaluation of preference in different kind of administration - spray versus monodoses versus multi-doses

The purpose of the study is to observe lacrimal fluid condition (tear film break-up time) chronologically after a single dose of AL-43546 ophthalmic products（0.15%, 0.25% and vehicle）and 0.1% sodium hyaluronate ophthalmic solution and compare lacrimal fluid retention time between them.
