FUCHS' ENDOTHELIAL DYSTROPHY

This study aims to find out which of two common cornea transplant surgeries works better for patients with corneal swelling. It will compare the DSAEK and DMEK procedures in 220 patients across Belgium. Researchers will track patients' vision and quality of life for a year to see…

This early-stage trial is testing whether a lab-grown corneal graft made from human cells is safe and effective for treating vision loss caused by corneal diseases like Fuchs' dystrophy. The study will enroll 30 adults with mild to moderate corneal damage to receive the engineere…

This is the first study in people to test the safety of a new corneal implant called PVEK. It aims to treat corneal swelling caused by specific eye diseases. About 15 participants will receive the implant and be closely monitored for side effects and how well they tolerate it ove…

This study compares two surgical approaches for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy, an eye condition that causes cloudy vision. Researchers are testing whether a less invasive procedure (Descemet Stripping Only with Ripasudil eye drops) works as well as the standard transplant surgery (…

This early-stage study is testing whether repeated injections of an experimental drug called EO2002 directly into the eye are safe for people with corneal swelling. The trial will enroll 12 adults whose vision is cloudy due to conditions like Fuchs' dystrophy or swelling after ca…

This study is testing if patients who receive a modern cornea transplant can safely use a weaker steroid eye drop and stop it sooner. It aims to prevent the body from rejecting the new cornea while reducing the common side effect of high eye pressure, which can damage vision. Res…

This study is testing a new type of microscope that scans the cornea to measure its stiffness. Researchers want to see if this scan can better detect early signs of corneal weakening diseases like keratoconus and ectasia. They will compare scans from people with healthy eyes to t…
