Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma"

Studies have shown that ocular surface disease (OSD) is common among patients with glaucoma with a prevalence of 50% or more. The percentage of affected patients appears to increase with increasing number of topical anti-glaucoma products instilled. Both pre-clinical and clinical work has indicated that the preservatives used in anti-glaucoma drops, particularly benzalkonium chloride, are mainly responsible for this detrimental effect. As such more and more anti-glaucoma drugs without preservatives entered the market. To prove that switching from preserved to unpreserved antiglaucoma medication improves the signs and symptom of OSD is, however, not easy. This is on the one hand related to the physiological variability of these parameters over time and on the other hand to the poor association between signs and symptoms. Recently, a new method for measuring tear film thickness (TFT) using ultra-high resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been introduced. Using this method, it has been shown that there is a correlation between reduced TFT and OSD symptoms. In the present study, it is hypothesized that changing patients who are on preserved prostaglandin formulations to preservative free tafluprost may be associated with an increase in TFT.

The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the implant and intra-ocular pressure (IOP) lowering effects with or without glaucoma medications. The procedure will be a stand-alone surgery. Overall, the patient will be asked to perform several examinations up to 24 months after surgery. The primary efficacy objective of the present study is to show the IOP reduction under medication 6 months after surgery compared to medicated diurnal IOP at screening.

Safety and tolerability study of 2 concentrations of QLS-101 for adult subjects with Sturge Weber Syndrome (SWS)-related glaucoma due to elevated episcleral venous pressure (EVP).

Evaluation of the management of primary congenital glaucoma regarding the results of surgical intervention at Asyut University Hospital

A prospective, nonrandomized, open label study to evaluate the safety and IOP lowering effectiveness of the Streamline Surgical System, in patients with mild-to-moderate open angle glaucoma undergoing cataract surgery.

A prospective, randomized comparative study on adult patients with synechial angle closure glaucoma.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and Intraocular pressure lowering effectiveness of the Streamline™ Surgical System.

This study was carried out to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combined phacoemulsification and Ultrasound ciliary plasty (Phaco-UCP) as a first-line surgical treatment of coexisting cataract and op /en angle glaucoma compared to phacoemulsification alone. To our knowledge, this is the first report of results of combined Phaco-UCP

This is a phase 2, double masked, randomized, multi-center, parallel-group, 28-day study assessing the safety, tolerability and ocular hypotensive efficacy of AKB-9778 Ophthalmic Solution 4.0% administered once (AM) or twice (AM & PM) daily when used as an adjunctive therapy to latanoprost ophthalmic solution 0.005% once daily (PM) in subjects with elevated IOP due to OAG or OHT.
