4 Clinical Trials for Eyelid Inflammation
To compare the efficacy of XDEMVY ophthalmic drop to its vehicle control for the treatment of Demodex blepharitis and its impact on the soft contact lens wearing experience.
Dry Eye Disease (DED) is a multifactorial disease that affects \~15-30 million people in the USA alone. It creates an enormous societal and economic burden, decreases productivity in the workplace, and affects the quality of lives of the people affected by this disease. DED is primarily caused by blepharitis, a chronic inflammation of the eyelid margins. If left untreated, blepharitis results in the obstruction and loss of the glands responsible for tear film production. The standard of care is the use of self-administered at home commercially available products, e.g., eyelid foams, gels, and pads. Although these products are helpful, they have limitations. Patients often require expensive in office procedures, e.g., lid debridement with exfoliation devices or more expensive procedures. The scope of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new self-administered disposable ocular brush used in conjunction with the most common eyelid cleanser. The investigators are looking to see if combining the microexfoliation provided by the brush with the eyelid cleanser is more effective at removing the eyelid debris than the cleanser alone.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usability of the iTEAR100 generation 2 device in combination with its newly developed iLIDS100 disposable cover.
