Active clinical trials for "Macular Edema"

The objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that following the use of intravitreal dexamethasone implant for the treatment of DME, there will be an observable increase in the capillary density plexus as denoted by the quantitative assessment of the superficial capillary plexus on OCTA, as well as a decrease in size of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ).

This study seeks to compare dexamethasone implant with rescue intravitreal ranibizumab to monthly intravitreal ranibizumab for the treatment of macular edema secondary to branch or central retinal vein occlusion. This is based on the null hypothesis that dexamethasone implant with rescue ranibizumab has inferior best corrected visual acuity at six months compared to monthly ranibizumab alone.

Intravitreal Ozurdex implant therapy improves visual outcome and OCT findings. The purpose of this study is that these results are correlated with the change of cytokine level known to be increased in DME patients.

The purpose of this study is to investigate which anti-inflammatory treatment is best at preventing postoperative inflammation following cataract surgery. We want to compare topical prophylaxis with NSAID eye drops to topical prophylaxis with a combination of NSAID and prednisolone. We also want to compare topical prophylaxis with eye drops to drop-less surgery where the anti-inflammatory drug is administered to the subtenonal space at the conclusion of the surgical procedure. In addition, we want to investigate if topical anti-inflammatory prophylaxis should be initiated preoperatively or postoperatively. The primary outcome is change in central macular thickness, measured by optical coherence tomography, 3 months after surgery.

Patients with new onset retinal vein occlusion in less than 3 month whom has visual acuity less than 20/40 and central macular thickness more than 250micrometer and non perfused areas of retina more than 10 DD are included in over study and devided into 2 groups randomizely, Group A under gone 3 intravitreal injection of bevacizumab monthly and examine monthly for Visual acuity and central macular thickness, if in month four or more the CMT is more than 250 micrometer and the visual acuity is less than 8/10 the injection is repeated and follow up in this manner is continued until 9 months. Group B is as the same of group A but patients in this group undergone laser photocoagulation of retinal non perfused areas based on FAG wide field imaging . After 9 month follow up the outcomes such as Vusal acuity, Central macular thickness, intraocular pressure, neovascular formation are compared,

Comparing time to recurrence of macular edema after an initial loading dose of at least three monthly anti VEGF injections (aflibercept or ranibizumab) for macular edema in BRVO.

Triamcinolone has already been used by different routes of administration to treat diabetic macular edema. In the present study, intravitreal injection (IVI) and posterior sub-Tenon's infusion (STI) of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) during phacoemulsification cataract surgery in eyes with refractory diffuse diabetic macular edema are tested.

To investigate ranibizumab's benefit on prevention of early postoperative vitreous haemorrhage in PDR-DME patients receiving vitrectomy.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the one-year visual outcome and prognostic factors after intraocular injections of ranibizumab under pro re nata treatment regimen for the patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).

The purpose of this study is to determine if additional panretinal photocoagulation of ischemic areas following retinal vein occlusion (RVO) may reduce the rate of recurrence and allow longer treatment intervals in anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) treatment following the "trea-and-extend" scheme.
