Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma, Open-Angle"

The primary objective of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of Brimonidine Tartrate Ophthalmic Solution, 0.15% in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

To estimate the frequency of patients with ocular/periorbital adverse events. To identify any possible long-term adverse consequences of increased iris pigmentation and to follow serious adverse events throughout the study period.

Post-operative cystoid macular oedema (CMO) is a common complication causing visual loss following routine cataract surgery. This complication is more prevalent in eyes with excessive inflammation as they heal from surgery. Prostaglandin analogues (PGA) are the commonest first line drugs used in the long-term treatment of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG)- where they reduce the pathologically high pressure in the eye. Prostaglandins are inflammatory mediators. In the post-operative care of glaucoma patients undergoing cataract surgery, there is a clinical dilemma whether to stop or continue the use of prostaglandin eye drops. Clinical practice is completely dichotomized between continuing and stopping PGA treatment in the postoperative period. There is conflicting scientific literature on the effect of PGA on the incidence of CMO; and only a single randomized control trial (Miyake K, Arch Ophthalmol 1999, 117:34-40), where the post operative regime is not applicable to present practice, compared the incidence of CMO following routine cataract surgery in POAG on PGA.

The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NCX 470 ophthalmic solution in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. Three different concentrations of NCX 470 ophthalmic solution (0.021%, 0.042%, and 0.065%) will be compared to latanoprost 0.005% ophthalmic solution.

The study is a prospective randomised controlled intervention comparing the intraocular pressure outcomes following Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) treatment of 180 degrees SLT compared to 360 degrees in treatment naive patients with bilateral ocular hypertension or primary open angle glaucoma . The right eye of each patient will be randomised to receive either 180 or 360 degrees SLT, while the fellow eye will receive the opposite treatment. That is, if the right eye is randomised to 180 degrees SLT, then the left eye will receive 360 degrees SLT. The primary objective is to assess the mean difference in intraocular pressure between two eyes of each participant. The mean difference in IOP will be assessed at two weeks and at one, three and six months after treatment with SLT. Secondary outcomes include assessing whether there are differences in visual acuity, anterior chamber inflammation, visual field progression and the rate of complications between the two eyes treated with either 180° or 360° of selective laser trabeculoplasty. The complications assessed are those published in the literature including: pain, blurred vision, anterior chamber inflammation, IOP spike, and hyphaema. Additionally, participants will be given the opportunity to report symptoms experienced through free text.

The ideal dosing for preservative-free tafluprost/timolol fixed combination remains to be elucidated. The present study compared the 24-hour intraocular pressure efficacy obtained with tafluprost/timolol given once in the evening with placebo once in the morning, versus that with the same fixed combination administered once in the morning with placebo given once in the evening in consecutive patients with open-angle glaucoma insufficiently controlled with branded, or generic latanoprost monotherapy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the intraocular pressure-lowering effect and the safety of DE-117 ophthalmic solution compared with Latanoprost ophthalmic solution in subjects with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of a single session of micropulse laser trabeculoplasty (MLT) on cornea in eyes with primary open glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEXG).

The objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of COMBIGAN® (brimonidine tartrate/timolol malate) in patients only using COMBIGAN® (brimonidine tartrate/timolol malate) and also in patients who require additional IOP lowering with LUMIGAN® (bimatoprost) 0.01%.

A Phase 3 Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Netarsudil Ophthalmic Solution 0.02% QD to Ripasudil Hydrochloride Hydrate Ophthalmic Solution 0.4% BID, for Treatment of Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension Over A 4-Week Period.
