Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests whether rinsing the inner eyelids and eye surface with a special device can lower inflammation and improve symptoms in people with dry eye disease. Researchers will measure changes in a marker of inflammation called MMP-9 in 33 participants. The goal is to see if this simple rinse can offer relief without medication.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Irrigation via irrigating eyelid retractor (device)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to manage dry eye symptoms by reducing inflammation on the eye surface.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 33 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The effect might be minor or temporary.
