Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma"

The purpose of this study is to determine cross-sectional relationships between macular pigment optical density (MPOD) and visual performance in glaucoma. Additionally, the investigators wish to determine the effect of lutein, zeaxanthin, and mesozeaxanthin supplementation on MPOD and visual performance in glaucoma patients.

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of real-time data collected on patients taking topical medication to treat glaucoma. Patients will be randomized to two groups, the first of which will only use the study device to take their medication, while the second will use the study device and receive on-demand reminder messages, when necessary.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether an educational intervention will have a positive effect on patients' ability to properly administer eye drops. The investigators predict that the educational intervention will have a positive impact on the efficacy, safety, and efficiency with which patients administer their eye drops.

Long term treatment with anti-glaucomatous drugs has been shown to increase the incidence of dry eye syndrome with all known consequences such as ocular discomfort and epithelial keratitis. Given that thinning of the tear film appears to be a risk factor for the development or the aggravation of dry eye syndrome, the current study seeks to investigate whether tear film thickness is changed after topical treatment with anti-glaucomatous drugs in healthy subjects. For this purpose, tear film thickness will be measured at baseline and after single instillation of one of 5 study drugs in one randomly chosen eye. In addition, one group of 20 subjects will receive no drug and will serve as a second control. Drug effects on tear film thickness will be compared to the fellow, non-treated eye. In addition, effects on tear film thickness of timolol with preservatives (Timoptic 0.5%) will be compared to timolol without preservatives (Timophtal sine 0.5%) and three lubricants with different viscosity (Genteal HA, Hylo-Comod, Thealoz).

This is a retrospective, nonrandomized comparative trial with historical control to investigate the safety and efficacy of a novel progressive grasping peripheral iridectomy (PGPI) surgical method in preventing aphakic angle-closure glaucoma (AACG) following congenital cataract surgery.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and performance of the ARGOS-IO system in patients with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG)

To evaluate the efficacy of once daily dosing with SPARC's novel ophthalmic formulation of bimatoprost compared with Lumigan 0.01% in subjects with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Newborn and children can be affected by two subgroups of this disease: (1) primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) or (2) developmental glaucoma (DG). The primary aim of this study is to compare the Santen PRESERFLO implant to trabeculectomy in PCG and DG patients as second surgery after failed trabeculotomy or goniotomy.

This is a prospective study of IOP in Intravitreal injections to evaluate: IOP effect of intravitreal injection IOP response to prophylactic beta blocker or Prostaglandin vs control (Hypromellose) over multiple time periods IOP response in correlation to number of injections, IOL, type of anti VEGF, co morbidities

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness (Intra-Ocular Pressure lowering) and safety of Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) in ethnic Chinese subjects with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension.
