Active clinical trials for "Retinal Detachment"

This is an open label study to evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal aflibercept injection 2mg in patients with a persistent FVPED despite at least 6 consecutive injections with ranibizumab 0.5 mg.

This study investigates the effectiveness of a simple treatment to prevent proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Intraoperative intravitreal 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is used as a prophylactic therapy in high-risk patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Our major motivation is to reduce the incidence of PVR in the group that receives the trial drug.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether preoperative pegaptanib sodium safely improves vitreous hemorrhage prior to surgical intervention and to evaluate the stability of pre-existing tractional retinal detachment.

To evaluate the effect of partial posterior hyaloidectomy on preventing iatrogenic retinal breaks related to induction of a posterior vitreous detachment

This study is a comparison (23 gauge vs 20 gauge instrumentation) of surgical instrumentation for retinal detachment repair.

Scleral depression is an important technique used to examine the peripheral retina but often causes patient discomfort. The goal of this study was to compare levels of discomfort during scleral depression with a Schocket scleral depressor and cotton tipped applicator.

The study aimed to investigate the effectivity of bupivacaine 0,5% as post-operative analgesia in intravitreal silicone evacutaion surgery

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a structured exercise program on musculoskeletal pain of patients in face-down posture after retinal surgery.

Retinal detachments correspond to a separation of the neuroepithelium from the pigment epithelium. They can be exudative (sometimes in conjunction with a tumor), tractional, traumatic (postoperative) or rhegmatogenous (in relation to a tear). Ultrasound, requested when the fundus is difficult to achieve and shows a hyperechoic mobile membrane. It can also measure the hemodynamic parameters of retinal arteries. A preliminary study showed a correlation between systolic velocity in the central retinal artery and postoperative visual acuity. The aim of this study is to confirm those preliminary data.
