Gene silencing may help corneal transplantation
April 15th 2009The side effects of an experimental 'gene-silencing' treatment that is currently being investigated for a variety of diseases could be useful in corneal transplantation, where growth of new blood and lymph vessels is believed to be a major cause of graft failure.
Patient enrolment completed for prevention of corneal transplant rejection trial
March 25th 2009Lux Biosciences has just completed its enrolment in the company's Phase III LUCIDA (LUx Corneal Transplant Implant Development and Advancement of Therapy) clinical trial programme for LUMITECT (LX201), a silicone matrix ocular (episcleral) implant designed to provide the continuous release for one year of therapeutic levels of cyclosporine A locally to the eye to prevent corneal transplant rejection.
Testing dry eye diagnostic system
March 18th 2009The TearLab Osmolarity Core Validation Study, a multicentre international clinical study assessing the efficacy of the TearLab Osmolarity System for the diagnosis of dry eye disease, has been launched by the system's maker, OccuLogix Inc, and sponsored by Alcon.
Best tools for measuring IOP in KC patients
December 3rd 2008The Pascal dynamic contour tonometer (DCT) and Reichert ocular response analyser (ORA) are the best tools for measuring corneal-compensated intraocular pressure (IOPcc) in patients with keratoconus (KC), according to study results published in the British Journal of Ophthalmology, December.
Once-daily insert designed to provide lasting dry eye relief
July 28th 2008A hydroxypropyl cellulose ophthalmic insert (Lacrisert, Aton Pharma) is a preservative-free product recommended for once-daily insertion in the inferior cul-de-sac. Its convenience, efficacy, and safety make it a valuable option for the management of dry eye disease.
Persistent epithelial defects in repeated corneal transplants
July 14th 2008In instances of repeated corneal transplantation, ulcers and persistent epithelial defects are relatively commonplace, according to a study published in the August 2008 issue of Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology.
Identifying early ectatic disease accurately
March 1st 2008Sreening for early ectatic disease is essential in the evaluation of the refractive surgical candidate. There have, however, been many cases of severe post-LASIK ectasia without evidence of preoperative risk factors. Improving preoperative screening with better detection of subtle corneal topographic abnormalities may therefore help eliminate these rare but devastating cases.
New diagnostics: making surgery easier and safer
March 1st 2008New developments in diagnostic technology should enable better screening and follow-up of refractive surgery patients, said Dan Z. Reinstein, MD, delivering a keynote address during the refractive surgery subspecialty day preceding the annual meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology in November 2007.
