Active clinical trials for "Hyperopia"

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the multifocal Artiflex Presbyopic intraocular lens.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether uncorrected or corrected long-sightedness (hyperopia) has an impact on reading skills, in Grade 2 or Grade 4 school-aged children from Mashonaland Central province of Zimbabwe, compared to age-, gender- and school-matched children with no refractive error (emmetropia), measured by the Happy Readers V4 reading tool over six months.

This will be a multicenter, prospective, open label, non-randomized, single arm 12 month study, evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the TECHNOLAS TENEO 317 Model 2 (Software version "1.28 US") excimer laser when used in LASIK surgery to treat hyperopia with or without hyperopic astigmatism. Both eyes of a subject may be enrolled so long as both eyes meet all inclusion/exclusion requirements. Analysis of the primary effectiveness endpoint will be completed at refractive stability.

The purpose of this study is to compare subjective ratings of lens handling at insertion for a monthly replacement lens versus a daily disposable lens in habitual soft lens wearers.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the product performance of a new silicone hydrogel daily disposable multifocal contact lens, the Bausch + Lomb (kalifilcon A) Daily Disposable Multifocal Contact Lens, when worn by current soft contact lens wearers on a daily disposable wear basis

The purpose of this study is to characterize the effects of peripheral focous-out glasses on emmetropization in non-myopic Chinese Children Aged 6-8 Years.This is a prospective, parallel-controlled randomized trial.

Successful treatment of residual refraction 6 months after IOL Implantation with Relex-Smile.

The refractive combination of high hyperopia with high astigmatism is difficult to treat surgically. In addition, there are not many suitable options to offer such patients presenting with this condition. The method used at the EYE Hospital Pristina using fresh lenticule implantation by ReLex-SMILE is safe and effective method. Fresh Corneal Implantation is a safe treatment for hyperopia with high astigmatism comparing with refractive IOL implantation (loss of accommodation, endophthalmitis). Its primary objective is to increase visual acuity, accommodation process, patient satisfaction which makes patient to enjoy a happier life. We believe this study will be the future of refractive surgery for treating high hyperopia.

The residual hypermetropic refraction on pseudophakic(Trifocal IOL) patients is difficult to treat surgically. In addition, there are not many suitable options to offer such patients presenting with this condition. Two current common surgeries to treat residual hyperopic refraction are refractive lens exchange (RLE) and excimer laser ablation (LASIK or PRK). Laser procedures: Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK); Laser assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK); Risks of LASIK include abnormalities of the corneal flap, epithelial ingrowth, corneal ectasia, refractive surprises, irregular astigmatism, decentration, visual aberrations, a loss of BCVA, infectious keratitis, symptoms, and diffuse lamellar keratitis. Refractive lens exchange (RLE); The risks of RLE are similar to those of cataract surgery and include endophthalmitis, a loss of accommodation, vitreous loss with posterior capsular rupture, and retinal detachment. The method used at the EYE Hospital Pristina using fresh lenticule implantation by ReLex-SMILE is safe and effective method, since there is no flap this prevents invasive damage to the anterior surface of the cornea contrary to the LASIK where flap is present posing risk for epithelial ingrowth. Before SMILE,YAG-laser capsulotomy should be performed on all patients, regardless of posterior capsule ossification, in pseudophakic patients with residual refraction. When the YAG-laser is applied after the SMILE,there will be a diopter change.

Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with excimer laser has been used successfully to treat myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism in adults for over 35 years. Children with high refractive errors that go untreated will develop severe amblyopia. PRK can normalize high refractive errors and potentially improve the visual acuity in affected children. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether children with high anisometropia or isoametropia with amblyopia that are nonresponsive to standard therapy and receive PRK develop better longterm visual acuity.
