The primary objective is the degree of IOP lowering after trabeculectomy with adjuvant Ologen® implantation, in comparison to trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C. Secondary objectives are peroperative and postoperative complications, and postoperative…
Demonstrate that compared to trabeculectomy, at 12 months follow-up:- a Baerveldt implant is not inferior with respect to IOP and- a Baerveldt implant is superior with respect to failure.
The objective of this study is to determine the optimal background light intensity for the examination of the visual field with a perimetry test and to confirm the de Vries-Rose, Weber's and Ferry-Porters law in patients with glaucoma.
To investigate the extent to which performance measurements in a driving simulator discriminate between glaucoma patients and a control group.
To demonstrate that externally induced increases in epipalpebral pressure (EPP) relate to clinically significant increases in IOP, and to determine posture dependency of EPP. To determine the effects of protective goggles on EPP under these…
In the present study, we will investigate if a monocular visual field defect - due to primary open angle glaucoma - influences the anatomical integrity of the visual pathways.
We want to assess the diagnostic performance of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, macular ganglion cell layer (GCL) thickness, lamina cribrosa thickness and choroid thickness around the optic disc measured with SD-OCT in differentiating…
The current study seeks to explore the SDOCT potential in a large group of patients in a clinical setting, and to compare it to existing, standard techniques.
Part 1: To determine the effectiveness of self-instillation of fluorescein drops by means of the combined E-Box/Xal-Ease device. Part 2: To determine patient satisfaction of the two administration procedures, i.e. Xal-Ease versus E-Box/Xal-Ease.
To obtain clinical data from normal individuals to establish significance limits for the GDx RNFL measurements using the ECC method and to collect GDx RNFL measurements in subjects with early, moderate and advanced glaucoma using the ECC method to…
To demonstrate that externally induced increases in subpalpebral pressure (SPP) relate to clinically significant increases in IOP, and to determine posture dependency of SPP. To determine the effects of protective goggles on SPP under these…
The primary objective is to assess the IOP and MAP in sitting and side lying position in healthy subjects and in patients with NTG.
To determine the contrast sensitivity, visual field and adaptation time at high light conditions.
The objective of this study is to determine the light and dark adapation time and contrast sensitivity in changing background light conditions.
The first aim of this study is to evaluate a number of new perimetric methods regarding their ability to detect glaucomatous visual field defects without being stressful or difficult for older participants. In this first study, both controls and…
The main objective is to compare motion perception thresholds in glaucoma patients with healthy subjects as a function of oscillation frequency and luminance.
Main objectives: 1. Determine whether the POAG patients with low values of the blood mtDNA copy number have a low mtDNA copy number and low mitochondrial function in skin fibroblasts, using in vitro assays of mitochondrial function.2. Explore the…
The objective is to investigate the differences in SNPs in patients with corticosteroid-induced ocular hypertension in comparison with patients exposed to corticosteroids who do not respond with an IOP increase. Based on the SNPs, genes involved in…
1, Quantify and compare vascular and structural parameters obtained from AO-FIO, OCTA, OCT, and CFP in both healthy controls and glaucoma patients; 2, Investigate the correlation between these parameters and assess the additional value of vascular…
To assess polarization-related RNFL characteristics of normal and glaucomatous eyes, and to explore the perspective of PS-OCT for other ocular conditions.
