10 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of Dextenza for the treatment of postoperative pain and inflammation following vitreo-retinal surgery
The aim of this study is to evaluate if patients receiving a steroid (triamcinolone acetonide) combined with local anesthesia and antibiotic following retina surgery have better postoperative pain control those receiving local anesthesia and antibiotic alone.
The investigators would like to determine if using Dexmedetomidine alone or in a reduced dose can prevent or reduce the incidence of adverse effects, while providing adequate sedation, and respiratory stability as compared to propofol.
This study will assess the control of inflammation at days 1, 7, 14, and 21 days following the vitreoretinal surgical procedure analyzing two randomized study arms: Intracanalicular dexamethasone insert group or topical steroid drop group. Patients must be 18 years of age and older, of any race and either sex, requiring surgery with the procedure type of pars plana vitrectomy for either the indication of macular hole, epiretinal membrane removal, or vitreomacular traction.
The purpose of this study is to determine if apnea (the stopping of breathing) occurs in patients undergoing undergoing monitored anesthesia care (MAC) for vitreoretinal surgery
To determine whether use of topical 0.4% ketorolac has any effect on pupil size during vitreoretinal surgery.
The purpose of this study to is to determine the incidence of post-operative ptosis in patients undergoing vitreoretinal surgery. An additional purpose is to identify pre-operative and intra-operative factors which correlate to the development of post-operative ptosis in vitreoretinal surgery cases.
Prospective, cross-sectional, observational study investigating a three dimensional heads up display for retinal surgery and comparing its outcomes and ease of use with the standard operative microscope.
OCT provides high-resolution information regarding the anatomic structure of the tissues of the eye in a 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional view. Much of this information is not able to be recognized by a clinician. Utilizing this information during surgery will allow for ophthalmic surgeons to better understand how surgical procedures impact the anatomic structure of the eye.
The purpose of the study is to compare the measurement of pressure inside the eye using three different FDA-approved devices (Icare, Tonopen, and Goldmann applanation).
