Active clinical trials for "Macular Edema"

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that two investigational treatment regimens have the potential to result in a superior visual acuity improvement as compared to a ranibizumab pro re nata (PRN=as needed) treatment regimen.

In the prospective monocentric open label trial patients with diabetic macular edema will be treated with intravitreal injections of ranibizumab given for 3 months then with laser grid at month 4. During follow-up a ranibizumab injection will be performed every 2 months in case of best-corrected visual acuity decreased more than 5 letters.

To determine if there is visual benefit with Ozurdex treatment every three months compared to monthly anti-VEGF alone, in subjects with persistent diabetic macular edema. The investigator hypothesizes more frequent administration of Ozurdex in patients that have persistent diabetic macular edema will result in a more rapid and sustained improvement of visual acuity and/or optical coherence topography (OCT) compared to the use of anti-VEGF alone.

To evaluate the change in quality of life (NEI VFQ 25) in subjects with DME during the first year of treatment with aflibercept according to the EU Label.

We are comparing the patient experience between the standard 30 g needle to the smaller 33 g needle for intravitreal injections of ranabizumab or aflibercept for age related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, or retina vein occlusions.

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most common complications of diabetes and diabetic macular edema (DME) is one of the most common causes of vision loss in diabetes. The purpose of this study is to determine if early intervention with micropulse laser treatment in eyes with good visual acuity (20/32 or better) will improve or stabilize vision loss due to the complications of diabetic macular edema.

This study compares the use of intravitreous triamcinolone and laser therapy to treat maculopahty in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in a short-tem period of 6 months

A multicenter study to compare multiple doses of intravitreal microplasmin for non-surgical PVD induction for treatment of patients with DME.

A prospective interventional case series study was conducted on 20 eyes of 20 patients with active myopic choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) ,20 eyes with resistant diabetic macular edema and 15 eyes with non ischaemic central retinal vein occlusion(CRVO) after approval of the Ethical Committee of the Faculty of Medicine, Tanta University . All procedures were carried out under the tenets of the Helsinki Declaration. Written consent was provided by all participants after discussing the procedure, alternative treatment plans, follow-up schedules, and possible benefits and risks.

Background Retinal vascular disorders, such as diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, retinal hemorrhage, and retinal vein occlusion are significant causes of vision impairment and blindness worldwide. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common retinal vascular disorder and is the leading cause of vision loss among patients aged 25 to 74 years. Aim to compare formulated Posterior Subtenon Triamcinolone acetonide (PSTA) injection versus Posterior Subtenon Triamcinolone acetonide alone versus suprachoroidal triamcinolone in the management of diabetic macular edema.
