Inherited vitreoretinopathy

This trial tests whether a modified soft contact lens placed on the cornea during vitrectomy, a surgery for retinal disease, keeps the surgical view clearer than the standard method of intermittent saline irrigation. Researchers randomly assign 46 participants to receive either t…

This trial investigates whether an injection of ranibizumab, a drug that blocks abnormal blood vessel growth, can effectively treat aggressive posterior retinopathy of prematurity (AP-ROP) in premature infants. AP-ROP is a fast-progressing eye condition that can lead to retinal d…

This early-phase trial tested a gene therapy called ZM-01 in 2 boys aged 3 to 18 with X-linked retinoschisis, a rare genetic eye condition that causes vision loss. Each boy received an injection of the therapy into one eye. The main goal was to check safety, but researchers also …

This study looked at whether early surgery (vitrectomy) or waiting with ultrasound monitoring is better for people with sudden, dense bleeding inside the eye. The goal was to see if early surgery could lower the chance of the retina detaching. Only 8 adults with recent bleeding f…

This study tests whether a smartphone-based camera can accurately screen for eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration. About 550 patients will have photos taken with both the smartphone camera and standard equipment. Ophthalmologis…

This study is testing whether a blood test can tell apart the DNA from a vanishing twin and the living twin in pregnancies where one twin stops developing. The goal is to improve non-invasive prenatal screening for chromosome conditions like trisomy 21, 18, and 13 in the survivin…

This study is testing a new eye imaging device called the VG200D, which uses advanced technology to take detailed pictures of the eye. Researchers want to see if it works as well as a standard device for measuring parts of the eye in people with glaucoma, retina problems, corneal…

This study tested a computer system called i-ROP DL that automatically checks eye images from premature babies for a serious condition called retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), which can cause blindness. Researchers used over 1,200 babies' eye photos from multiple hospitals to see…

This study tests a program called Tu'Washindi, designed by and for young women in Kenya. It combines support clubs and community sessions to help girls ages 15-24 reduce intimate partner violence and consistently use HIV prevention pills (PrEP). About 1,562 participants will be f…

This study tests a laser treatment for people with bothersome eye floaters that make vision blurry or distracting. Researchers will measure how vision, eye structure, and quality of life change after the procedure. The study involves 50 adults with floaters caused by certain eye …

This trial tests whether playing different types of music during retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) eye exams can reduce pain and improve comfort in premature infants. ROP exams are necessary but can be painful and stressful for babies. Researchers will compare pain and comfort sco…

This early study tested a tiny dexamethasone insert placed in the tear duct of 15 children after retinal surgery or laser treatment. The goal was to see if it could safely reduce pain and eye inflammation. Researchers measured pain using a standard scale and tracked any side effe…

This study tested whether playing slow tempo music before and during an eye injection (intravitreal injection) can reduce anxiety and pain. 144 adults took part, with half listening to music and the other half receiving standard care. Researchers measured anxiety using saliva tes…

This study looks at X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS), a rare inherited eye disease that causes vision loss in young males. Researchers will examine 351 participants, including affected males and female carriers, using eye exams, retinal photos, and genetic tests. The goal i…

This study tests a microscope that has an OCT scanner built directly into it, allowing surgeons to take detailed cross-sectional images of the eye during surgery. The goal is to see if this setup is practical and whether the extra visual information helps guide surgical decisions…

This study is looking at thousands of premature and low-birth-weight babies in China to understand how common retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is today. ROP is an eye condition that can lead to blindness if not caught early. The researchers want to find out the best time and crit…

This trial tests a new device called P200TxE that takes detailed images of the back of the eye. Researchers want to see how well it captures images in people with retinal diseases like glaucoma or macular degeneration. The study involves adults aged 22 and older who have been dia…

This study tested whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help doctors detect retinal diseases from ultra-widefield eye images. 462 images were read by four eye doctors with different experience levels, both with and without AI assistance. The goal was to see if AI improves accu…

This study tested dexamethasone eye drops in 11 premature infants at risk of blindness from retinopathy of prematurity. Researchers measured how the drug enters the blood and saliva, and monitored for side effects. The goal was to gather safety and dosing information, not to prov…

This study explored whether the amount of omega-3 fatty acids in premature babies' bodies is linked to a serious eye condition called retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Researchers measured omega-3 levels in 62 premature newborns born before 29 weeks. The goal was to see if lower …

This completed French study followed 748 adults undergoing retina/vitreous surgery to see if taking blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelets) raises the risk of bleeding complications. Researchers compared patients who continued or stopped their medication with those not o…

This completed study looked at over 7,000 premature infants to understand which babies develop a serious eye condition called retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and need treatment. Researchers used a cloud-based database to compare risk factors and outcomes. The goal was to improve…

This study looked at 175 premature babies to see if high iron levels in their blood during the first month of life are linked to a serious eye condition called retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Researchers measured iron-related markers and tracked which babies developed ROP. The …

This study followed about 100 babies who were treated for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) with either Eylea injections or laser therapy in an earlier trial. Researchers checked their vision and eye health years later to see how well the treatments held up. The goal is to underst…
