A Novel Combined Therapy for Refractory Vernal Keratoconjunctivitis
Vernal KeratoconjunctivitisTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of 0.1% tacrolimus combined with loteprednol etabonate 0.5%/tobramycin 0.3% (LE/T) in vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) patients resistant to conventional treatment. This prospective 6-mouth period study aims to include 20 severe VKC patients who were not responding to conventional treatments. All the patients will be treated with 0.1% tacrolimus suspension two times daily, LE/T eye drops four times daily for 1 month. Additionally, 0.1% olopatadine two times daily and preservative-free artificial tears four times daily will be used. After the first month, LE/T will be stopped, with other treatments continued for the last 5 months. Visual acuity and intraocular pressure (IOP) will be measured at enrollment and 1, 2, 3 and 6 months after treatment. Besides, 6 subjective symptoms and 6 clinical signs will be graded at each visit based on a 4-point scale. The primary endpoints are the change in symptoms and objective signs. Treatment failure will be recorded if extra corticosteroids were required.

Pilot Study to Investigate the Feasibility, Reliability and Efficacy of Utilizing OCT to Automate...
KeratoconusOcular Surface Disease7 moreEYEdeal Scanning Technology enables rapid measurement of corneal and scleral topography. By accurately measuring the ocular surface with this imaging technology, the current iterative fitting method required to fit PROSE (prosthetic replacement of the ocular surface ecosystem) devices could be replaced and/or strengthened with a more rapid, automated fitting sequence. This could considerably reduce the time needed per visit, the number of visits, and the number of devices needed to be manufactured to reach the endpoint. Additionally, the scanning technology may afford the opportunity to successfully fit some pathology that were previously treatment failures. The automated technology may as well reduce the intensive clinician training time needed to fit PROSE devices, therefore increasing the availability and access to patients. The goal of this research is to evaluate the reliability and efficacy of this automated technology for fitting PROSE devices. Data from real-time measurement of the human eye ocular surface topography will be used to fabricate a prosthetic lens. The fit of the PROSE device will be evaluated, as well as the subjective comfort of the fit.

Effect of B-cell Depletion in Patients With Primary Sjögren's Syndrome
Primary Sjögren's SyndromeXerostomia3 moreThe primary purpose of the study is to determine whether B-cell depletion with Rituximab has an effect on the oral, ocular and general disease manifestations in patients with primary Sjögren´s syndrome, that is, an effect on the symptoms of oral and ocular dryness, improvement of the glandular function and a beneficial effect on the general symptoms such as fatigue. The secondary purpose of the study is the investigate the underlying autoimmune and pathophysiological mechanisms in Sjögren´s syndrome.
