Active clinical trials for "Myopia"

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the VISCO (Olifilcon A) soft contact lens could be prescribed as a supportive care for myopic persons.

The proposed study seeks to compare visual acuity, tomographic outcomes, biomechanical changes and inflammatory profile of normal eyes (matched for age, refraction and corneal thickness) undergoing iDesign and SMILE procedure. The hypothesis is that iDesign may deliver equivalent or better clinical outcomes than SMILE, by removing less tissue and correcting for higher order aberrations.

The purpose of this study is to validate the safety and effectiveness of treating myopia (short-sightedness) higher than -10D using small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) with the VisuMax femtosecond laser.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether plum-blossom needle is effective in the treatment of juvenile myopia and compare the efficacy with Tropicamide Eye Drops.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of (corneal Wound Healing and Intraocular Pressure) Fluorometholone and Loteprednol after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) surgery. OVERALL STUDY DESIGN: Structure: Single-center, randomized, single blinded, contralateral (one eye receives FML, one eye Lotemax) Treatment Group: Patients will be randomized to the eye and will receive FML in one eye, Lotemax in contralateral eye Duration: 3 months Dosage/Dose Regimen: All patients will receive each one of the steroid agents 4 x a day for one month, 3 x a day for one month and 2 x a day for one month Study medication will be administered to the randomized eye through post op days according to mention protocol. Visit Schedule: baseline-screening, postop days 1, 7, 30 and then month 3th (through corneal re-epithelialization).

In recent decade, a major improvement in vitreoretinal surgery was the use of small gauge surgical systems that improved the safety of vitrectomy and also reduced the surgical time. However, there were still some concerns regarding small gauge vitrectomy system, especially 27-gauge system, in the stability of its instruments and the efficacy of removing vitreous during surgery. Although there were some studies that had reported the surgical outcomes of 27G vitrectomy system, none had focused on patients with high myopia. The highly myopic patients usually had thinner sclera, which was a risk factor for wound leakage after sutureless vitrectomy, they also had longer axial length which would make the surgical procedure more difficult especially in macular surgery. Based on previous clinical finding, gas leakage was 36.4% in 25G , while 27G sclerotomy showing less leakage comparing to larger gauge sclerotomy, the investigators believe 27G may have its clinical advantages in overcoming the thinner sclera of high myopia, and show the superiority of leakage control. Hypothesis: The 27G vitrectomy system has lower sclerotomy wound leakage rate compared with 25G system

The purpose of this multicenter randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the adjunctive effect of repeated low-level red-light therapy (RLRL) and orthokeratology (ortho-k) on myopia control in ortho-k non-responders who have undergone ortho-k treatment but were still experiencing fast myopia progression.

Assess the Safety, Pharmacodynamics, and Efficacy of EXP039 Ophthalmic Solution in Participants with Myopia or Hyperopia

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of different lens treatments (normal spectacle lens, ortho-K, & Myovision) on myopia control in Chinese adolescent patients.

To determine the effect of spectacles with a red blocking filter on myopia progression in children. To determine the effect of spectacles with a holographic diffuser that spreads incident light rays over an angle of 0.5 degrees on myopia progression in children To determine the combined effects of spectacles with a red blocking filter and a diffuser that spreads incident light over an angle of 0.5 degrees on myopia progression in children.
