Active clinical trials for "Optic Neuropathy, Ischemic"

Study H6D-MC-LVHQ is an observational, non-interventional, multi-center, prospective, case-crossover study to evaluate the possible association between the use of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors and the risk of acute nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) in males. Subjects with newly diagnosed NAION will be asked via a structured questionnaire about their use of PDE5 inhibitors and other risk factors prior to the onset of their vision loss.

The objective of this non-interventional study is to examine whether use of Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors (PDE5s), including use of sildenafil, vardenafil, or tadalafil, triggers the onset of acute NAION.

To follow all patients enrolled in the original Ischemic Optic Neuropathy Decompression Trial (IONDT) to determine (1) the incidence of non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) in the second eye, (2) changes in visual acuity over time in both the study and second eye, and (3) other aspects of the natural history of NAION.
