Active clinical trials for "Ocular Hypertension"

Evaluate the IOP-lowering efficacy and quality of life in patients using bimatoprost 0.03% monotherapy versus dual therapy with travoprost 0.004% and timolol 0.5% for the treatment of glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Glaucoma is among the leading causes for blindness in the western world. Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) has been identified as the most important risk factor. However, some patients progress despite adequate IOP lowering while some subjects with elevated IOP never develop glaucoma. Other patients develop glaucoma although IOP measurements were always in the normal range. Therefore, other factors must be involved. In the last years, studies using MRI have been performed and evidence has accumulated that also changes in retrobulbar structures are present, in particular in the lateral geniculate nucleus and the visual cortex. However, these studies were limited by the low spatial resolution of the MRI instruments used.

This is a prospective, observational, single-center study. Patients with at least 3 months of experience using topical medications for glaucoma and who state that they administer their own eye drops will be recruited. Subjects will be videotaped instilling a sterile artificial eye drop, will be identified at the time of a regularly scheduled exam. If the patient can get a drop onto the eye and also not touch their lids or ocular surface with the eye drop bottle, the subject will be thanked but not enrolled. All other patients who agree to participate will be enrolled. Upon completion of videotaped instillation of an eye drop, each enrolled patient will be shown a video demonstrating an instillation technique and will be given an instructional handout highlighting a proper drop instillation technique. If necessary, an instillation technique will be demonstrated to them by an investigator or trained personnel. A patient will be identified as properly instilling a drop if they satisfy the following criteia: They are able to instill one (and only one) drop to the ocular surface or lower fornix without allowing the bottle touch the adnexa, eyelid, eye lashes or eye. All patients routinely return between 3 and 6 months. At this regularly scheduled visit,the investigator or trained personnel would direct the patient to instill an eye drop into the study eye.Additionally, the short glaucoma self-efficacy questionnaire will be re-administered. All of the video-recordings of participants' eye drop instillation techniques will be reviewed and assessed using a standard checklist. Their ability to administer an eye drop after training will be compared to baseline.

Exploratory trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of D565H twice daily versus D565 once daily.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of CKD-351

The purpose of the study is to provide evidence that the efficacy of Xalatan will be superior to Apo-latanoprost and Co-latanoprost in the reduction of intraocular pressure in patients with primary open angle glaucoma. The study will also aim to prove the tolerability of Xalatan in terms of ocular hyperemia will be equivalent to its generic counterparts.

To investigate the effect of patterned laser trabeculoplasty (PLT) compared to selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) on intraocular pressure (IOP) in treatment naiv patients suffering from open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Values for IOP will be measured at baseline, 1 day and 1 month post-interventional as well as 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months after treatment. Trial with medical device

The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of CKD-351.

This cross-over study will investigate the efficacy and safety of BIMMD and TUDPF in a clinical setting.

Glaucoma is the most frequent cause of irreversible & preventable blindness worldwide, affecting about 2% of the world's population in people over 40. The major risk factor, and only treatable factor in glaucoma, is increased intraocular pressure (IOP). IOP reduction can slow or arrest the progression of vision loss. Current treatment consists of drops administered on a daily basis with unfortunately low patient compliance, increasing the chance of blindness. Eximore's product aims to eliminate the need to apply eye drops on a daily basis and thus solves the significant problem of patient compliance.
