COMPLETED
The Heidelberg Engineering ANTERION Corneal Epithelium Thickness Precision and Agreement Study
Description

This is a prospective clinical study that will be conducted at one clinical site located in the United States to assess corneal epithelial thickness parameters with the ANTERION

COMPLETED
Comparative Study of the Optical Biometer for Measurements of the Eye
Description

The primary purpose of this comparative clinical study is to collect clinical data to demonstrate the equivalence of the investigational device to the predicate device for measurements of the eye. The secondary purpose is to evaluate any adverse events that occur during the clinical study.

COMPLETED
Study to Evaluate Corneal Neurosensory Abnormalities in Patients With Sjögren's Dry Eye
Description

Primary Objective - To assess the proportion of patients with Sjögren's dry eye who demonstrate impaired corneal sensitivity. Secondary Objectives * To assess corneal sensitivity via Cochet-Bonnet esthesiometer. * To assess tear secretion via Schirmer I test. * To assess OPAS questionnaire results.

COMPLETED
Abnormalities of the Eye's Anterior Chamber, Iris, Cornea and Lens
Description

This study will investigate congenital or developmental eye abnormalities that affect the iris, cornea and lens, and are usually accompanied by elevated pressure within the eye. These disorders can cause vision loss, and the increased eye pressure can lead to glaucoma, a condition that may also cause loss of eyesight. Patients with eye anterior chamber eye disease, such as Axenfeld's syndrome, Rieger's anomaly, Peter's anomaly, iridocorneal endothelial syndrome, megalocornea, ocular hypertension, and others, are eligible for this study. Participants will have a medical examination, family history, and comprehensive eye examination. Tests and procedures may include photographs of the cornea, iris, and the structure through which fluid that normally circulates behind the cornea drains out of the eye. Some patients may undergo indentation tonography to measure how easily this fluid drains. In this procedure, the patient lies on an examination table and both eyes are numbed with eye drops. A small instrument (tonometer) is placed on the surface of one eye, and with the other eye, the patient looks at an overhead light. Other tests may include photographs of the back of the eye and ultrasound imaging of the structures of the eye. A blood sample may be drawn to study the genetic disorder responsible for the disease. Patients will have follow-up examinations every 6 months for the duration of the study. Medical or surgical therapy will be recommended, as appropriate, for patients who develop elevated eye pressure or vision loss.
