Macular Edema Clinical Trials

A percentage of patients with retinal degeneration, a group of progressive blinding diseases, are known to develop fluid within the center part of their retina known as macular edema. Previous studies have documented that an oral form of carbonic anhydrase inhibitor (acetazolamide) can be effective in reducing the amount of ...

Efficacy Study of Triamcinolone and Bevacizumab Intravitreal for Treatment of Diabetic Macular Edema

Objective: To evaluate the effect of topical nepafenac 0.1 %, in preventing and in treating macular thickening related to pan-retinal photocoagulation in diabetic patients. Material and methods: This is a prospective, longitudinal, and controlled study in patients with diabetic retinopathy (severe non-proliferative and proliferative retinopathy), with a symmetric severity in ...

Compare the effect of an intravitreal injection of bevacizumab previous or posterior of panretinal laser photocoagulation (PRLP) with a pattern laser; to prevent and reduce diabetic macular edema (DME) in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) with DME.

In this study, regressed proliferative diabetic retinopathy, very severe, severe and moderate non-prolifrative diabetic retinopathy patients who were going to have a cataract surgery, underwent a complete eye examination, OCT, FAG and color photography 2 weeks prior to their operation. All patients divided in two: 1) control group (Phyco,PCIOL), 2) ...

This is a phase 4 prospective, nonrandomized, open label, interventional clinical trial. Study eyes will receive 5 required initial monthly IAI doses of 2 mg followed by 2q8 IAI for a total of 52 weeks; only one study eye from each patient will be enrolled. Starting at week 24, patients ...

Diabetic macular edema refers to swelling (fluid accumulation) in the center of the retina. The retina is like the film of a camera and is located in the back of the eye. This condition can develop in diabetics where swelling results from leaking of fluid from the blood vessels of ...

To evaluate the efficacy of 577nm micropulse laser photocoagulation with grid/focal treatment for diabetic macular edema. To investigate influence of 577nm micropulse laser photocoagulation on structure and function of macula compared with 532nm subthreshold laser photocoagulation.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic retinopathy are among the most common disorders causing visual disability in elderly people. AMD leads to dysfunction and loss of photoreceptors in the central retina. Neovascular AMD (nAMD) affects visual function early in the disease process. The purpose of the study is to evaluate ...

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic macular edema (DME) are the primary cause of irreversible blindness and visual impairment in working-age adults. Nearly 80% of patients with diabetes will experience some degree of DR and DME 15-20 years after diagnosis. Altered blood parameters (glucose, lipids, and pressure) influence disease development and ...
