13 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The goal of this study is to compare the visual quality and patient preference of the Synergy IOL versus the PanOptix IOL when one of each lens is placed in the same patient.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the visual quality and function of pseudophakic patients.
This study will assess the impact of IOL glistenings on visual quality and function in patients implanted with a single-piece AcrySof intraocular lens (IOL) that exhibits glistening formations. The primary objective is to determine if random light scattering (measured by C-Quant)correlates with severity of glistenings, other objective measures of visual function (visual acuity, low contrast visual acuity, low contrast visual acuity with glare), and subjective measures of patients' perceptions of their visual quality after cataract surgery (quality of life survey, reports of symptomology and satisfaction).
The objective of the study is to compare the visual outcomes of three aspheric monofocal intraocular lenses after cataract surgery - ACRYSOF® IQ, Tecnis® and Akreos® MI60.
To evaluate and compare the effects of PEG-400 based artificial tear and Systane tears in mild-moderate dry eye patients. TBUT, Visual impact and subjective evaluations will be assessed in this month long trial.
To evaluate visual outcomes and quality of vision following bilateral implantation of the Clareon PanOptix intraocular lens (IOL) targeted for emmetropia.
The purpose of this study was to measure the quality of visual function and quality of daily living in patients with anterior, posterior, and panuveitis.
In this line of research, the researchers are examining a basic science question regarding the working memory representations underlying visual search using a positive template (looking for a target) or a negative template (avoiding a distractor).
The purpose of this research study is to better understand the impact of visual impairment caused by different eye diseases on the ability to perform daily activities and compare it to that in patients without eye diseases.
This research is aimed to address one of the big gaps in the current vision rehabilitation protocols for people with profound visual impairment by evaluating a multisensory approach. There are a growing number of clinical trials that recruit people with end-stage eye diseases and the rehabilitation plan following various treatments is not clear. It is important to address this in order to maximize the efficacy of such treatments and to improve the quality of life in people with profound visual impairment.
PatiEnt Neuropsychological outcomeS After laseR ablation
Late-life depression levels are escalating, and include 24% of all tenants of Assisted Living (AL) settings. A promising, novel intervention is a computerized visual speed of processing training program known as Road Tour. Road Tour has been show to reduce depressive symptom levels and the risk of onset of clinical depression in community dwelling older adults. The investigators hypothesize that similar benefits will accrue to residents in AL settings. To evaluate this the investigators will use a two-arm, parallel, randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing Road Tour training to attention control using computerized crossword puzzles among 370 adults 55 years old or older who reside in 15-30 AL settings that are partnering with the investigators. The investigators hypothesize that Road Tour participants will have improved cognitive processing speed, lower levels of depressive symptoms, lower likelihood of the onset of clinical depression, less anxiety, lower levels of pain symptoms, and better health-related quality of life. These outcomes will be assessed at baseline, post-training, six months, and one year.
This is a 5-year study of patients implanted with the Implantable Miniature Telescope (IMT by Dr. Isaac Lipshitz) under Protocol IMT-002. All patients implanted with the telescope prosthesis who enrolled in the IMT-002 trial were asked to participate in this study to monitor long-term safety. Patients will undergo examinations at six-month intervals up to a total of 5 years following implantation.
