Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma"

This is prospective, non-randomized, single-arm study to assess the safety and effectiveness of lowering intraocular pressure with the Beacon Aqueous Microshunt. A total of 65 subjects will be enrolled at five centers. The primary endpoint will be assessed at 12 month follow-up.

The SALUS project is developing a new form of care, the application of self-tonometry by the patient itself, and an accompanying electronic case file connecting clinics, doctor's offices and patients.

The investigators hypothesize that KeraSys is a safe as Tutoplast to cover the tube of the Molteno 3 glaucoma drainage device during surgery

The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and tolerability of changing to DuoTrav® (Travoprost 0.004%/Timolol 0.5% BAK-free) from prior Xalacom® or Ganfort® fixed combination pharmacotherapy in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension with uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP).

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and tolerability of changing to AZARGA® from prior COMBIGAN® pharmacotherapy in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Trabeculectomy is the gold standard procedure for the surgical treatment of glaucoma. Antimetabolites such as mitomycin-C (MMC)are widely used as an adjunctive during surgery to prevent scarring of the bleb. MMC has the risk for creating thin bleb walls, avascular blebs, and increased risk to infection, blebitis and endophthalmitis. Recently, a biodegradable porous collagen-glycosaminoglycan copolymer matrix implant (Ologen), has become available for glaucoma surgery.Although a few studies on filtering surgery with Ologen implantation have been performed, there is yet no conclusive evidence on effectivity and safety with Ologen implantation when compared to trabeculectomy with MMC. This is a prospective intervention pilot study to determine the degree of intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering of trabeculectomy with Ologen implantation in comparison to trabeculectomy with MMC. Additionally, the safety (per- and postoperative complications) of the two procedures will be compared. The study hypothesis is that trabeculectomy with Ologen will be a safer procedure than trabeculectomy with MMC, but probably at the cost of a less potent IOP lowering.

The purpose of this study was to compare the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of a new fixed combination of brinzolamide/brimonidine (Brinz/Brim) to: its individual components (Brinz and Brim), and the concomitant administration of Brinz and Brim (Brinz+Brim).

The purpose of the study is to compare the IOP lowering efficacy of Travoprost/Brinzolamide dosed daily in the morning or evening, vs TRAVATAN dosed once daily in the evening, and vs. AZOPT dosed BID in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of two different IOP lowering medications after six weeks of treatment in Caucasian and Japanese subjects.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the OculusGen Collagen Matrix are effective and safe to implant as an aid of glaucoma surgery.
