14 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The pilot study objective is to evaluate the potential benefits of LipiFlow® System treatment of contact lens wearers with meibomian gland dysfunction and evaporative dry eye by assessing for improvement in meibomian gland function and reduction of dry eye symptoms in comparison to an untreated control.
Optovue has developed a new feature for mapping corneal epithelial thickness. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the accuracy and repeatability of the epithelial thickness measurement. Consented subjects will undergo a series of cornea measurements using optical coherence tomography (OCT) that will be used for analysis.
Discomfort with contact lens wear is the biggest reason why people stop wearing contact lenses. The investigators believe that inflammation is one of the causes of discomfort, and by blocking the inflammation using lifitegrast, the investigators may be able to relieve some of that discomfort. This study will enroll 50 subjects with contact lens discomfort and will receive lifitegrast to use over a period of approximately 3 months.
Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion is currently used in the treatment of dry eye syndrome. Contact lens wearers frequently suffer from dry eye syndrome. The purpose of this study is to evaluate cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion verses re-wetting drops in the relief of dry eye symptoms in contact lens wearers
This is a prospective, single site, randomized, double masked, comparator-controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy of lifitegrast ophthalmic solution 5% in treating the symptoms of dry eye in soft contact lens wearers as compared to control. We hypothesize that there will be a significant improvement in dry eye symptoms in contact lens wearers using lifitegrast as compared to those being treated with control (lifitegrast vehicle).
The purpose of this study is to determine if Optive®eye drops are safe for people who wear contact lenses and have dry eyes. The second goal of the study is to determine if using Optive®eye drops can improve my dry eye scores on a standard dry eye test (called the OSDI).
This study is a single center, prospective, randomized, controlled, double-masked, two-arm investigator-initiated study to investigate the efficacy of OC-01 (varenicline) nasal spray on the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease in daily soft contact lens wearers.
The purpose of this study was to clinically evaluate the potential causes of contact lens-related dry eye.
Miebo (Perfluorohexyloctane) is a novel, non-aqueous, single entity, preservative free, ophthalmic drop. This drop was recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of Meibomian Gland Disease (MGD). All published data on Miebo has been done in non-contact lens wearers. As contact lens dropout rates seem to be an ongoing problem for practitioners, we are performing this study utilizing this novel new drug with contact lens patients to determine if the drops assist comfort in typical soft contact lens wearing patients. If the study determines that Miebo assists in the overall comfort of contact lens patients this could be a possible way to help keep patients in their contact lenses longer.
This is a 30-Day, multi-site, single-masked, bilateral, active- controlled, 2-Arm parallel group study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an Investigational product.
The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate the benefits of using the Bruder Moist Heat Compress in contact lens wearers who report reduced comfortable wear time. This will be done by assessing for improvement in ocular oil gland function and comfortable contact lens wearing time after one month of daily warm compress application. The efficacy of the Bruder Moist Heat Compress applied once will be compared to twice daily application as well as compared to warm compress application using a wash cloth.
to evaluate tears between habitual contact lens wearers and non contact lens wearers
To evaluate dry eye symptoms and contact lens wearing times after a single iLux treatment by evaluating change from baseline in OSDI scores, subjective CLDEQ8 and CL wearing time questionnaires, and meibomian gland secretion scores.
Tangible Hydra-PEG is a novel coating technology designed to improve lens wettability, deposit resistance, and tear film breakup time. This is a randomized double masked cross-over study to examine contact lens discomfort and dry eye symptoms with Tangible Hydra-PEG treated scleral lens wear compared to untreated scleral lens wear in the dry eye patient population.
