Active clinical trials for "Exfoliation Syndrome"

Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome Is a common disorder in Egypt. IT is one of the common causes of coexisting cataract and glaucoma. It may be associated with a less than normal endothelial count.

The purpose of this study is to determine the natural course of IOL in PXF, To demonstrate use of a clinical grading system for PXF, To strategize a way to prevent IOL dislocation, subluxation post operatively, To demonstrate intraoperative and long-term post-operative complications associated with phaco and PXF To suggest evidence-based ways to minimize these complications, by using capsular tension rings (CTR), specific IOL material or size

To evaluate the association profiles of the lysyl oxidase-like 1 gene polymorphisms with pseudoexfoliation syndrome in the Korean population, Genotypes of lysyl oxidase-like 1 gene were analyzed by direct sequencing.
