3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Compared to laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) is associated with more discomfort and requires more downtime. However, it is oftentimes considered the preferred method of refractive surgery for patients with dry eye syndrome, high refractive errors, thin corneas, or those with more active lifestyles who may be more prone to dislodging their LASIK flaps. We hypothesize that the use of bandage contact lenses soaked in proparacaine will decrease pain levels compared to solely the use of bandage contact lenses after PRK.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate worn AIR OPTIX® plus HYDRAGLYDE® (AOHG) lenses cleaned and disinfected with HYDRAGLYDE® containing lens solutions compared to each of the control habitual silicone hydrogel (SiHy) lenses cleaned and disinfected with habitual multi-purpose solution (MPS) for cholesterol uptake.
To determine if wearing a moderate spectacle under-correction (3.00D) and performing activities designed to stimulate accurate accommodation during a 15-month period will enhance emmetropization in highly hyperopic (between +5.00D and +7.00D) 3-month old infants.
